Top Industry Professional Joins Aphena as Head of Quality & Regulatory Affairs

May 13, 2011 By Bio-Medicine.Org

COOKEVILLE, Tenn., May 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Cookeville-based
Aphena Pharma Solutions Inc., a leading pharmaceutical
packaging
provider in the U.S., is pleased to announce that on
June 1, Mary G. Foster, PharmD — one of the top regulatory
professionals in the industry — will join the company as its
Corp. VP of Quality and Regulatory Affairs. In this role, Foster
will help Aphena to shape its vision, plan long-term goals, and
further enhance the company’s rigorous adherence to the highest
quality and regulatory standards.

A senior-level regulatory/quality professional with more than 25
years of experience, Foster comes to Aphena from Catalent Pharma
Solutions, where she served as vice president of quality. In that
role, she was responsible for creating a global current Good
Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) program and for training and
developing connections within the industry and worldwide regulatory
bodies to ensure continuous understanding and improvement of
quality processes.

“We’re so pleased to have Mary join the company. It is our
intent to employ the industry’s best and brightest, Mary certainly
fits that category” said Aphena President and CEO Renard Jackson.
“She shares our company’s values, our focus on client expectations,
and our vision for the future as a single-source industry
leader.”

“I’ve been impressed with Aphena’s increasing leadership in the
pharmaceutical packaging industry in recent years,” said
Foster. “To me, this was a logical next step in my career, and I am
eager to begin working with such a quality-driven team.”

Aphena was formed this year as a strategic alliance between
Celeste Contract Packaging, PrePak Systems, TestPak and Integrated
Pharmaceutical Packaging — all long-term specialized leaders
in the contract pharma
and personal care packaging, repackaging and manufacturing
industry
