BioPharmX Appoints New CFO

He brings more than 20 years of accounting and finance experience to the position and will be responsible for all finance, administration and investor relations functions. Prior to his position at BioPharmX, Kitchener served as vice president of finance at Cepheid, a publicly traded healthcare company.
