Compugen Names New President, CEO

Compugen Names Serono Executive Alex Kotzer As New President, CEO, Effective in September

NEW YORK (AP) -- Israeli drug and diagnostic company Compugen Ltd. said Tuesday it named Alex Kotzer as president and chief executive, effective Sept. 1, after his relocation to Israel.
Kotzer will replace Mor Amitai, who announced last October that he intends to resign from these positions before the end of 2005.

For the past 12 years, Kotzer has been employed by Swiss biotechnology firm Serono, and by its Israeli affiliate, InterPharm. Initially, he was president and CEO of InterPharm, until 1999, when he was promoted to vice president of the parent company and relocated to Switzerland.

Compugen shares rose 9 cents to $3.73 in morning trading on the Nasdaq.
