Business Wire
Lightlake Therapeutics Inc. (OTCBB: LLTP), a drug discovery
company developing innovative solutions to combat the worldwide
epidemic in obesity – a trillion dollar market - has appointed Dr
Roger Crystal as CEO.
Crystal, 33, will spearhead Lightlake’s operations from its
London HQ, overseeing the clinical trials programme and the
bringing to market of a groundbreaking safe and effective treatment
for obesity and unhealthy eating habits.
He began his career as a medical doctor in 2002 and qualified as
a surgeon in 2005, most recently at St Mary’s Hospital, London. He
has an MBA awarded by the London Business School.
Whilst on the MBA Dr Crystal’s experience also included
internship at investment bank Goldman Sachs International and he
was President of the Healthcare Club at London Business School,
from where he has a valuable network. As Lightlake CEO, he will
continue to work in healthcare strategy management consulting.
“We are proud to announce the appointment of Dr Crystal. We
wanted an individual with clinical, financial and business
experience.” said a Lightlake spokesperson.
“Dr Crystal has that rare combination of treating people up
close and personal while having the business acumen to drive our
product to market quickly, efficiently and with efficacy. Unhealthy
eating is costing nations billions in addition to the social costs
to individuals and families, ranging from depression to diabetes.
Lightlake believes the clinical trials beginning in January will
prove its product will be a fast, effective and – unlike other
pharmaceutical products – a safe solution free of side effects, to
one of the biggest health crises of our time.”
