Arana's next scheduled clinical trial will be a Phase II rheumatoid arthritis dose-ranging study for its leading anti-inflammatory compound ART621, which is expected to start in the fourth quarter of this year.
Scott holds a PhD from Glasgow University, did a post-doc in biochemistry at Oxford and has held positions in clinical operations and project management in Europe in the pharma, biotech and CRO sectors.
