Falls Church-based Inova Health System has named Dr. Milton L. Brown director of the new Inova Center for Drug Discovery and Development.
Brown also will be deputy director for drug discovery for the Inova Schar Cancer Institute.
"The addition of Milt and his team puts Inova squarely on the forefront of drug discovery in the United States," Knox Singleton, Inova’s CEO, said in a statement. "And that means better treatment options and better outcomes for patients across the Commonwealth of Virginia."
Brown is a physician scientist with expertise in the design, synthesis, and evaluation of new drugs. In addition to being a physician, he holds a doctorate in synthetic chemistry.
