In a statement to the press, Bill Sullivan, the company’s president and CEO, said, "The decision to create two separate businesses within bioanalytical measurement reflects the need to serve distinct sets of customers."
The company reports that effective immediately, the current vice president and general manager of the Chemical Analysis Solutions Unit within the LSCA, Mike McMullen, has been promoted to senior vice president of Agilent and president of the new Chemical Analysis Group. His counterpart in the LSCA’s Life Sciences Solutions Unit, Nick Roelofs, will also be promoted to SVP of the company and has become the president of the new Life Sciences Group.
