His broad expertise across strategic, developmental and regulatory domains will no doubt contribute to accelerating Cybin's path forward," concluded Dr. Inamdar.

"With the imminent commencement of its phase 3 study of CYB003, and the initiation of a phase 2 study of CYB004, the company's proprietary deuterated dimethyltryptamine (DMT) program for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), this is an exciting time for Cybin," stated Dr. Mahableshwarkar. "I am extremely encouraged by the recently published positive data across the company's lead pipeline products and believe that my experience overseeing smaller proof of principal/concept as well as large, complex, global phase 3 trials will contribute to Cybin's success advancing its portfolio of candidates. I share Cybin's commitment to bringing forward improved therapeutics for patients who suffer with mental health disorders and look forward to contributing to the team's efforts," concluded Dr. Mahableshwarkar.
