She will also be responsible for forging partnerships with pharma and diagnostic companies to design the go-to-market strategies and deliver solutions to improve patient standards-of-care.

Pharmaceuticals’ journey and to attract people of the calibre of Carsten and Trine into our organisation. They are among the very best people in our industry,” said Matt Regan, CEO of Micreos Pharmaceuticals, who joined the company in October 2021. “Trine and Carsten bring significant pharmaceutical industry experience, success, and know-how that will help us to make the right choices in early drug discovery and in our pharmaceutical development programs to ensure that we are raising the standards of care for patients in our selected disease areas.”
About Micreos Pharmaceuticals
Micreos Pharmaceuticals develops new biological therapies based on the targeted killing of unwanted bacteria, which has medical potential in a broad range of applications. The company is viewed as a global leader in this field. Its proprietary endolysin technology has been created together with the Swiss Federal Technology Institute, ETH in Zurich.

About Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR)
AMR is an issue of growing global importance which results in 750,000 deaths per year . It occurs when pathogens adapt so that the drugs used to treat infections become less effective. If not addressed, the spread of antibiotic-resistant pathogens could continue to rise, leading to highly dangerous superbugs. The number of annual global deaths from AMR is projected to increase to 10 million by 2050 — which is more people than die globally of cancer today – unless successful alternatives to antibiotics are developed.
Micreos Pharmaceuticals intends to play a very significant role in addressing AMR and the great unmet medical need for a safe alternative to antibiotics.
