Ten years ago, Gerjan Kemperman expected that the demand for CDMO services would increase enormously. So when Organon/ MSD left Oss in 2012, he and a colleague started the company ChemConnection at Pivot Park to ‘fill the gap’ and offer development and manufracturing services of active pharmaceutical ingredients to biotech companies. A good decision as his company, nowadays called Ardena, has grown rapidly.
Henri Meijering (senior project manager at Ardena) recently co-authored a scientific article published by Clinical and Translational Science (March 2022) about Kinetics of myelin breakdown products: A labelling study in patients with progressive multiple sclerosis.
