She is Director of the Division of Therapeutic Proteins, a division that regulates diverse protein therapeutics, including enzyme replacement therapies, hematologic and somatic cell growth factors and immunomodulatory agents including interferons and interleukins. Her particular interests are in tolerance induction in diverse clinical settings including autoimmunity, therapeutic protein immunogenicity and transplantation. Dr. Barthélemy Demeule obtained his Ph.D. at the University of Geneva, Switzerland, where he started his investigations on the physico-chemical stability of biopharmaceuticals. After a postdoctoral work at Genentech, Inc. focused on the effect of the in vivo environment on antibody-antigen interactions, he stayed in the company where he held positions of increasing responsibilities. He currently leads a group of scientists responsible for the pharmaceutical development of monoclonal antibodies in the last phases of clinical development. He also serves on the editorial board of the European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics.
