PEOPLE ON THE MOVE
Astellas: Nate Crisel
Astellas has promoted Eli Lilly-alumni Nate Crisel to vice president of its real world informatics and analytics division.
“Nate’s background at Astellas includes roles in New Product Analysis and nearly four years at our Tokyo headquarters in Product and Portfolio Strategy and Corporate Planning divisions,” said chief financial officer Chikashi Takeda.
It was in his role in Corporate Planning that he initiated the idea of having the RWI Center of Excellence, said Takeda.
“He then proceeded to build the organisation from scratch to its current state,” he added.
Crisel has held positions at Eli Lilly – where he was an analytical chemist and pharmaceutical development project manager – and at biotech start-ups including Embedded Concepts and LLC.
He received a bachelor of science in chemistry from Indiana University, US, and a master of business administration from Purdue University’s Krannert School of Management.
