SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- InCode BioPharmaceutics, Inc., an emerging company in complement depletion, announced that it has appointed Kevin L.

Dr. Stark has more than 19 years experience as a biopharmaceutical researcher and executive, most recently as an Executive Director at Amgen, and Chief Operating Officer at iZumi Bio, Inc. His latest responsibilities included strategic operations within R&D, integration of mergers and acquisitions, licensing, and business development.

"We are very pleased to appoint Kevin Stark as our CEO," said Jay Lichter, Ph.D., Chairman of the Board. "We believe his experience, which spans basic research to executive management, will be instrumental as the company advances into drug development and seeks potential partnerships."

Dr. Stark received a Ph.D. in Pharmacology from the University of Washington, and a B.S. in Zoology from Colorado State University.

InCode also announced that William St. John has resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer, and will remain on the Board of Directors.

In conjunction with this transition, the company will shift operations from the San Francisco, CA location to the Thousand Oaks, CA area.
