International Stem Cell Corporation Chairman adds CEO Role
Oceanside, California, [dateline] – International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCBB:ISCO) (www.internationalstemcell.com), a California-based stem cell therapeutics company, announced today with great regret the untimely death of its CEO, Mr. Jeff Krstich. The Chairman of the Board, Kenneth C. Aldrich has assumed the additional responsibility of Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Mr. Aldrich was one of the original founders of the Company and had been CEO until Mr. Krstich joined the Company as CEO in 2006.
Mr. Krstich died of an apparent heart attack on January 20, 2008. He was 60 years old.
“It is with deep regret that I announce the passing of, not only a great business leader, but someone who was a good friend as well,” said Mr. Aldrich. “Jeff shared ISCO’s passion for pushing the bounds of science; believing that advancement in stem cell research would soon provide cures for many intractable human diseases and improve the quality of life.”
With the merging of the Chairman and CEO positions, the company will not experience any operational disruption going forward. “We are all shocked that Jeff would be taken at such a young age, but we are determined to use this tragic event as motivation to vigorously pursue stem-cell based therapeutic remedies that would help to fulfill Mr. Krstich’s dream,” concluded Aldrich.
