Last week, Merck & Co. (Whitehouse Station, NJ) appointed Julie Gerberding president of Merck Vaccines. Gerberding, who was director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from 2002 to 2009, will assume her new position on January 25, 2010.
At Merck, Gerberding will be responsible for commercializing the company’s current portfolio of vaccines. She also will plan the introduction of vaccines from the company’s pipeline and assist in Merck’s efforts to broaden access to its vaccines in the developing world. In addition, Gerberding will foster collaboration between the leaders of Merck Manufacturing Division and Merck Research Laboratories to maintain links between research, late-stage development, and manufacturing.

"I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama
when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'
If it's the second, then it's a smart hire for Merck, if it's the first, then the CDC is shadier than I thought.
