The appointment of Ms. Zampatti to the pSivida board replaces Ms. Alison Ledger who has stepped down after 18 months of service to focus on new career initiatives.
"We wish Alison well in her future endeavours and thank her for her valuable contribution," said pSivida CEO and Managing Director, Mr. Gavin Rezos.
