Carrolee Barlow is leading the execution, analysis and regulatory interactions that resulted in the approval of the first small-molecule therapy for Fabry disease (migalastat). She also led efforts that resulted in the first proof-of-concept clinical studies in patients for two novel biologic programs for Pompe and Fabry diseases. Previously, Dr. Barlow was a co-founder, Chief Scientific Officer and Chief Medical Officer of BrainCells Inc., advancing new therapeutic approaches for neurological and psychiatric disease, and worked at Merck Research Laboratories as Director of Molecular Neuroscience and worldwide leader of the Stroke and Neurodegeneration therapeutic areas. Earlier in her career, Dr. Barlow was a professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, where she was a pioneer in the nascent field of neurogenomics. Dr. Barlow served as a member of the board of directors of Orphazyme A/S, a publicly traded company, and on the scientific advisory boards of ReCode Therapeutics, Kainos Medicine, CIONIC, and Rune Biosciences, each a private company. Dr. Barlow received her M.D. from the University of Utah and completed her residency in internal medicine at The New York Hospital, Cornell Medical Center. She went on to earn a Ph.D. in molecular and developmental biology at the Karolinska Medical Nobel Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. Shortly thereafter, she joined the National Institutes of Health and completed specialty training in endocrinology and a postdoctoral fellowship in neurogenetics at the National Human Genome Research Institute. Dr. Barlow is an author of approximately 100 peer-reviewed research papers, review articles and book chapters, and is an inventor on numerous U.S. patents. Dr. Barlow s extensive executive and pharmaceutical research experience with various neurological and psychiatric diseases qualifies her to serve as a director.
