Life Science Partner is pleased to announce the recruitment of Stan Harris as Vice President, Clinical Operations for BioTissue – the newly unified brand for TissueTech, Amniox, and Bio-Tissue.
BioTissue is an emerging biotechnology leader in utilizing the power of human birth tissue for regenerative healing to treat ocular surface disease and in surgical, chronic wound, and musculoskeletal applications.
“For years, health care professionals have known our products—regardless of their specific applications—for providing mother nature’s most natural gift of healing so their patients can get back to the lives they love,” said Ted Davis, president, and CEO, BioTissue. “Our new, unified brand supports our entire pipeline of human birth tissue products to aid the treatment of wounds, musculoskeletal conditions, trauma-induced injuries, ocular surface disease, and burns.”
With nearly 40 years dedicated to the medical device industry and a focus on regulatory, quality, and clinical affairs, Harris brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the clinical operations team at BioTissue. The FDA and other global regulatory agencies are increasing the regulatory oversight of cell-derived therapies. Harris will be responsible for developing and leading BioTissue’s clinical development with an emphasis in the ophthalmology, orthopedic and pain management indications.
Most recently Harris served as the Vice President, Regulatory, Clinical and Quality Affairs at Lifeline Scientific with previous clinical and regulatory roles at MiMedx, Integra Life Sciences, Ascension Orthopedics, and Wright Medical. “From his previous experience, Harris has direct relationships with key thought leaders in wound healing including excellent relations with the FDA, US, and European regulatory agencies for biological products,” states Tom Callaway, MD, MBA, Founder of Life Science Partner. “His experiences and enthusiasm will be ideal for BioTissue’s continued growth and product development.”
