Genetech, the biotech subsidiary of Swiss firm Roche, has named its new CEO, revealing that Alexander Hardy will be returning to the company to lead its operations.

Hardy originally joined Genentech in 2005, and during his time with the company he has held a number of senior management roles, including the management of patient access services and commercial operations across a range of disciplines such as influenza, neuroscience, and HER2-positive breast cancer.
