    "Syed brings to Poseida an impressive combination of industry leadership and highly specialized drug development experience in cell therapy, and I am excited to welcome him to our leadership team during this important period of execution across our clinical stage CAR-T portfolio," said Kristin Yarema, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Poseida. "Syed has a proven track record in guiding the development and commercialization of multiple cancer treatments, including three approved autologous CAR-T cell therapies, and his expertise will be an invaluable asset as we usher in the next wave of cell and gene therapies."

    "Poseida's compelling and proprietary science, impressive manufacturing capabilities, and execution-focused mindset position the Company to bring potentially transformative therapies to patients with significant unmet medical need," said Dr. Rizvi.
