As President of Stallergenes, Inc. and Senior Vice President of Stallergenes Greer Tom provided senior leadership experience through the development and implementation of strategic development plans to successfully navigate the very challenging FDA regulatory environment leading to commercialization of a novel allergen-based product.

​

In summary, Tom is a seasoned well-regarded senior level executive with over thirty-five years of pharmaceutical industry experience and a long record of proven successes in the commercialization of products in the challenging and complex FDA environment of the biopharmaceutical industry.
