In May 2008 Bell Pottinger USA worked with The National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) to announce that its board has unanimously selected Peter Saltonstall to be the organization’s new President and Chief Executive officer.
The appointment comes as NORD celebrates its 25th anniversary and the 25th anniversary of the landmark Orphan Drug Act which provides incentives for development of therapies for people with “orphan” diseases affecting 200,000 or fewer people in this country.
