\nEsteemed academic and industry virologist discovered hepatitis C virus (HCV); brings 40+ years of scientific and drug development experience
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., July 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Assembly Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASMB), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing innovative therapeutics targeting hepatitis B virus (HBV), today announced that Sir\u00a0Michael Houghton, PhD,\u00a0has been appointed to the company\u2019s board of directors. Dr. Houghton was awarded the\u00a02020 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine<\/a>\u00a0along with\u00a0two other research scientists\u00a0in recognition of their discovery of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) in 1989. Dr. Houghton will also serve as a member of Assembly Bio\u2019s Science and Technology Committee.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor more than 30 years, I\u2019ve witnessed Mike\u2019s perseverance and unwavering drive to solve complex scientific challenges related to viral hepatitis. By pushing the limits of technologies available at the time, he and his team not only cloned, identified and discovered the hepatitis C virus, they also developed critical blood screening tools to prevent the transfusion of infected blood and transmission of hepatitis C, which allowed us to unravel the natural history of this disease,\u201d said John McHutchison, AO, MD, Chief Executive Officer and President of Assembly Bio. \u201cMike\u2019s groundbreaking work paved the way for new therapies and, ultimately, a cure, and I\u2019m honored to have him serve on our board. His counsel and experience will be invaluable as we pursue approaches directed toward finite and curative therapy for HBV \u2013 a disease where Mike has a long standing scientific interest and which has not seen significant therapeutic innovation in more than two decades.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am thrilled to welcome Mike to the Assembly Bio Board of Directors, and I am confident that we will benefit significantly from his strong scientific acumen, expertise and thought leadership in virology, and deep knowledge of the research and drug development process,\u201d said William Ringo, chairman of the board at Assembly Bio. \u201cMike\u2019s strategic insights will be tremendous assets to the company, and we are eager to benefit from his profound and measurable success in the field.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Houghton is currently director of the Li Ka Shing Applied Virology Institute at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, AB Canada. Since joining the University in 2010 as Canada Excellence Chair in Virology, he has served as a Li Ka Shing professor in the Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology. Previously, he was chief scientific officer at Epiphany Biosciences and vice president of hepatitis C and virology research at Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics. Earlier in his career, Dr. Houghton spent 24 years in hepatitis C and virology research at Chiron Corporation, where he held director and vice-president level roles of increasing responsibility. He began his career as senior research investigator working on human interferon genetics at Searle Research Laboratories in Buckinghamshire, England.<\/p>\n

Dr. Houghton earned a BSc in biological sciences from the University of East Anglia, and a PhD in biochemistry from King\u2019s College, University of London. Over the course of his career, he has been the recipient of 17 prestigious awards, including the Lasker Award and, most recently, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. In addition to 85 patents, Dr. Houghton\u2019s research has been published extensively in leading, peer-reviewed scientific journals. In 2021, Dr. Houghton was knighted in the Queen\u2019s Birthday Honours for services to medicine.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am excited about the potential for Assembly Bio\u2019s novel pipeline to target finite and curative therapies for HBV, where significant progress is needed to improve the current treatment paradigm for the more than 250 million individuals worldwide living with the disease,\u201d said Dr. Houghton. \u201cI believe that the world-class team at Assembly Bio is well positioned to advance these programs and deliver significant therapeutic innovations to the field and to patients.\u201d<\/p>\n
