The board of directors of the Critical Path Institute (C-Path), an independent, nonprofit organization, have named Martha Brumfield, Ph.D., as interim president and CEO. Brumfield, C-Path’s former director of international and regulatory programs, will take over immediately for Carolyn Compton, M.D., Ph.D. who will be assuming a new position at Arizona State University (ASU).
Compton, a professor at ASU, will now devote her full-time efforts to the National Biomarkers Development Alliance, a biomarker initiative that is based at ASU.
