- IN8bio hired Oxana Polyakova as senior vice president of research and development
- Polyakova previously served as chief scientific officer at LAVA Therapeutics before joining IN8bio
- The hire was featured in STAT's recurring "Up and down the ladder" column, which highlights a different industry personnel move each week
- STAT uses the column to invite readers to submit their own comings and goings for inclusion in future editions
Why it matters: IN8bio gains a CSO-level executive to oversee its research pipeline, adding Polyakova's scientific leadership experience from her prior tenure at LAVA Therapeutics. The announcement reflects the kind of mid-level biotech executive transition that STAT's weekly column tracks but broader business outlets typically skip.
