LifeArc

LifeArc is a UK registered and self-funding charity, with a 25-year legacy of collaborating with scientists on diagnostics and therapeutics focused on improving the lives of patients through medical innovation. As a self- funded charity, LifeArc can reinvest any income generated into furthering medical research. LifeArc drives medical innovation through its own translational research and works with a range of partners from industry, charities, universities, research organisations and others involved in improving lives for patients. The charity is undergoing a transformative change following the $1.3bn monetisation of a royalty interest from LifeArc’s work some years ago. The resources generated from this work has given LifeArc a tremendous opportunity to significantly enhance its own research activities aimed at advancing promising science into new health interventions for patients.

LifeArc is now seeking two Trustees to join its Board with experience in the following two areas:
• Biomed or Biotech investment professional with experience in early stage companies, or
• Legal professional with demonstrable experience at senior level in a Biomed, Biotech/pharma or Medical products company.

The roles are unremunerated and the envisaged time commitment is between 1-1.5 days per month.
