NeoGenomics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEO), a leading provider of oncology diagnostic solutions that enable precision medicine, today announced the appointment of diagnostics and lab services industry veteran John P. "Jack" Kenny to its Board of Directors. Mr. Kenny is filling the seat vacated by Alison Hannah, MD, who is rotating off the Board after more than ten years of dedicated service.
Mr. Kenny brings to the NeoGenomics Board over three decades of diverse executive, commercial, and operational experience and a track record of success in the diagnostics and lab services businesses. He most recently served as President, Chief Executive Officer and Board Director of Meridian Bioscience, a fully integrated life science company that develops, manufactures and distributes a broad range of innovative diagnostic products and critical raw materials for immunoassay and molecular testing companies. Meridian, which formerly traded on the NASDAQ exchange under the ticker "VIVO," was taken private in January 2023.
"We are very excited to welcome Jack to the NeoGenomics Board," said Lynn Tetrault, Chair of the Board of NeoGenomics. "His vast experience building winning cultures and leading high performance commercial teams will serve us well as we pursue significant emerging opportunities in the next generation of cancer testing, notably NGS and MRD. I look forward to his insights and guidance."
"I would also like to thank Dr. Hannah for her strategic guidance over the past decade and her unwavering commitment to NeoGenomics' mission to save lives by improving patient care. Her contributions have been invaluable," Ms. Tetrault concluded.
Prior to joining Meridian Bioscience in 2017, Mr. Kenny served as SVP and General Manager of North America at Siemens Healthcare and, before that, as VP and General Manager of the U.S. region at Becton Dickinson. Earlier in his career, he held sales leadership positions at Leica Biosystems, Quest Diagnostics, Siemens Medical Solutions, and Abbott Laboratories. Mr. Kenny also serves on the Boards of OraSure Technologies, Inc., DCN Diagnostics, and Quantum-Si, Inc. He received a BS in management systems with a focus in marketing from Kettering University (formerly the GMI Engineering and Management Institute).
"I have known NeoGenomics for many years, and I believe their leadership position in hematology cancer testing positions them well to deliver innovation to where it's needed most – the community setting – improving patient outcomes while creating sustained value for shareholders," said Mr. Kenny. "I look forward to working alongside my fellow Board members and the passionate NeoGenomics leadership team to help guide the Company through its next phase of growth."
