Idera Sources "Ex-Merck-ified" Virologist Dr. Nicola La Monica, Late Of Italy


Another former Merck scientist -- this time, a virologist -- now on the move, per this presser:

. . . .Dr. Nicola La Monica most recently served as Director of Antiviral Research at IRBM, a division of Merck Research Laboratories, in Rome, Italy, where he has worked from 1991 to 2009. During his tenure at Merck, Dr. La Monica has held positions with increasing levels of responsibility and has led drug discovery efforts in the area of Hepatitis C Virus and oncology, as well as development programs for cancer immunotherapy. Dr. La Monica earned a Ph.D. in Microbiology from Columbia University in 1988. He has authored or co-authored over 84 publications and is co-inventor on 13 patents, issued or pending worldwide. . . .

The drain continues.
