To bring a new drug that the world has never seen takes years of effort by top experts in many fields. his is a very worthwhile cause and deserves all our efforts. As being new to the industry , I hope I can bring fresh perspectives and my experience in organizing resources on scale and raising and allocating capital. Hopefully governmental affairs will help facilitate this process,\u201d said Ms. Xia, \u201cI believe in our discovery team, therapeutic strategy and pipeline of potential products. I am committed to building a large antibody production site that meets the highest international standards. I will make sure we will not only manufacture Sparx therapeutics for clinical trials and commercial use in a timely manner, but will also become a preferred manufacturing collaborator for multinationals. We aims to be China’s Genentech\u201d.<\/p>\n
