Synexus has appointed Dr Glynis Neagle as Chief Medical Officer.  Manchester-based Synexus has become the world's largest company specialising in the recruitment and running of clinical trials at its own Dedicated Research Centres.  The company recently welcomed a new Chief Executive, Dr Christophe Berthoux and this latest appointment supports the company's strategy not only to continue its aggressive growth plans, but also to ensure it keeps medical practice at the heart of its expanding operations. Dr Neagle will be responsible for all of the company's medical, ethical and regulatory issues in addition to leading the group's knowledge base in its expansion into new disease and therapy areas worldwide.

Dr Neagle joins Synexus from Norgine Ltd, a specialist GI/Hepatology pharmaceutical company, where she was Director of Clinical Development. She previously spent several years working for Covance where she was latterly VP of Medical Affairs. 

Working as a pharmaceutical industry physician for over 12 years, with time spent in both the UK and New Zealand, Dr Neagle has extensive experience in the clinical trials sector including large global registration trials and post-marketing studies. Her areas of therapeutic expertise include oncology, internal medicine and sleep studies.
