New hires include Tony Tramontin, PhD (Chief of Strategic Partnerships), Scott H. Kollins, PhD (Chief Medical Officer), and Holly J. Logue (General Counsel).

"Formally establishing a base in New York City solidifies our strategic growth plans in the US and elevates our ability to engage deeply with our partners here," said Nawal Roy, founder and CEO of Holmusk.

Our New York office is strategically located in the Northeast Biotech corridor, with superb access to our pharma partners, regulatory bodies, policy organizations, and investors."

Bringing together a range of exceptional industry and scientific experience, the new executive leaders will play a critical role in driving the company's traction and growth:

• Tony Tramontin, PhD, Chief of Strategic Partnerships, drives new long-term strategic engagements with partners across the healthcare ecosystem, including pharma, health systems, and payers. Tony was previously Chief Scientific Officer at Axcella Health and a partner in the Life Sciences & Healthcare Practice of McKinsey & Company.
• Scott H. Kollins, PhD, Chief Medical Officer, leads the company's collaborations with academic, clinical, and regulatory stakeholders, with a focus on building Holmusk's platform at the intersection of technology, data science, and healthcare. Scott developed expertise in clinical research and digital health as a faculty member at Duke University School of Medicine. He also served as the Global Lead for ADHD and Substance Use Disorders, and Co-Lead for the Digital Health Solutions Initiative at the Duke Clinical Research Institute.
• Holly J. Logue, General Counsel, oversees all legal and policy activities related to corporate governance. Holly brings wide-ranging expertise relevant to life sciences and machine learning technology, as well as in legal aspects of growing innovative businesses, from intellectual property to global compliance. She previously was Head of Strategic Assets and General Counsel at Drawbridge Health, a medical device and diagnostic company.

Michael Weintraub, Holmusk Board Chair, commented: "I am thrilled to welcome these new leaders, with their extensive capabilities and broad expertise across healthcare and life sciences.
