Galapagos NV is to revisit its plan to separate into two companies by creating a spin-out focused on innovation, and leaving the parent company to develop cell therapies. The revaluation of the company’s strategy was announced on 13 May together with the appointment of a new chief executive officer who will succeed Paul Stoffels, a former Johnson & Johnson Inc manager who has led Galapagos since 1 April 2022. The new CEO is Henry Gosebruch, most recently head of Neumora Therapeutics Inc, a US-based neuroscience drug developer.
