Scott Got­tlieb adds one more high-pro­file board seat to the post-FDA re­sume. And it’s an­oth­er plum as­sign­ment

Scott Got­tlieb has land­ed an­oth­er high-pro­file board seat.

The re­volv­ing door out of the FDA led Got­tlieb back to the Amer­i­can En­ter­prise In­sti­tute and his role as a part­ner at the big VC New En­ter­prise As­so­ciates. Then he quick­ly land­ed on the board of Pfiz­er and a re­al-world ev­i­dence play­er called Ae­tion. The Faster­Cures board run by ex-con phil­an­thropist Michael Milken beck­oned.

Now he’s adding Il­lu­mi­na to the ros­ter. The DNA se­quenc­ing spe­cial­ist $ILMN has been un­der pres­sure with weak­ened con­sumer test num­bers in Jan­u­ary, but it still has a mar­ket cap of $44 bil­lion and close ties to Big Phar­ma play­ers like Roche, which re­cent­ly signed on for an al­liance.
