Resolve Biosciences, a company pioneering Molecular Cartography™ technology, announced today that it has appointed John Stark as Chief Executive Officer. As part of this transition, Resolve Biosciences’ previous CEO, Jason Gammack, will be leaving the company.
Mr. Stark brings more than 20 years of experience commercializing early-stage technologies, scaling organizations, and navigating capital markets for some of the most innovative life sciences companies. Most recently, Mr. Stark was Chief Executive Officer of Quantum-Si (NASDAQ: QSI), a next-generation, single-molecule protein sequencing platform company. Prior to that, he served as CEO of Celsee, a novel single-cell genomics platform company that was acquired by Bio-Rad (NYSE: BIO) in 2020. Earlier in his career, Mr. Stark held senior leadership positions at Life Technologies (acquired by Thermo Fisher Scientific, NYSE:TMO), Pacific Biosciences (NASDAQ: PACB), and Affymetrix (acquired by Thermo Fisher Scientific).
“The Board is excited to welcome John to Resolve Biosciences to lead our next chapter of growth and success,” said Peer M. Schatz, co-founder and Chairman of the Board. “John brings an impressive track record of execution, operational excellence, and successful team building to drive innovation. Throughout his career, John has consistently delivered high-growth results for numerous industry-defining platforms. We look forward to working with him on our quest to shape the future of spatial biology and realize the massive opportunities and vast applications in science and medicine.”
Mr. Schatz added, “We deeply appreciate Jason Gammack for his contributions and leadership of the company as former CEO, including shepherding the company through the COVID-19 pandemic and initial launch of our commercial platform and service offering.”
