Thomas P. Stossel

Tom Stossel was co-founder and chief scientific advisor to BioAegis, a clinical stage company focused on developing therapies for infectious, inflammatory and degenerative diseases through a portfolio built around plasma gelsolin technology and therapeutics. The company is commercializing recent scientific discoveries that harness the body's innate defense system to prevent serious outcomes. BioAegis' platform of opportunities exploits the multifunctional role of Plasma Gelsolin (“pGSN”), a highly conserved, endogenous human protein. pGSN is a master regulator—a key immune modulator that balances the inflammatory process to prevent the spread of excess inflammation while simultaneously enhancing antimicrobial defense. It is a unique anti-inflammatory without immunosuppressive properties. In August 2019, BioAegis successfully completed a Phase 1b/2a Community Acquired Pneumonia clinical. Based on abundant pre-clinical efficacy evidence and the outcome of the clinical trial, BioAegis is now raising funding to launch a phase 2b trial in severe pneumonia designed to demonstrate definitively that plasma gelsolin repletion reduces morbidity and mortality.

Stossel wrote extensively on policy issues related to medical research and on the relationships between academic researchers, physicians, and the medical products industry. His articles and op- eds have appeared in many publications including, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post and The Boston Globe. His book, Pharmaphobia, How the Conflict of Interest Myth Undermines American Medical Innovation was published by Rowman and Littlefield in 2015. He was a senior fellow of The Manhattan Institute (2008–2009) and a visiting scholar of the American Enterprise Institute (2014–2017).Stossel has been supportive of industry ethics since 1987, when he joined the scientific advisory board of Biogen. He was also critical of the Affordable Care Act rule known as the Physician Payments Sunshine Act, requiring all companies that sell medical products to the government to disclose on a public website anything they give to physicians that is valued above $10.

Stossel earned a BA degree summa cum laude from Princeton University and an MD degree cum laude from Harvard Medical School. He completed internship and residency in internal medicine at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and was a staff associate at the National Heart Institute after which he received training in hematology at Boston Children's and Peter Bent Brigham Hospitals. He was chief of hematology-oncology at the Massachusetts General Hospital from 1976 to 1991, head of experimental medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital (1991–1998), co-director of hematology (1998–2006) and translational medicine (2011–2014) at that institution. He served on the scientific advisory boards of Biogen, Inc (1997–2002), Dyax, Inc (1991–2001) and has been a director of Velico Medical Inc since 2000. He was president of the American Society for Clinical Investigation and of the American Society of Hematology), served on the Lasker Awards' Jury and as editor in chief of The Journal of Clinical Investigation and of Current Opinion in Hematology.

Thomas P. Stossel (September 10, 1941 – September 29, 2019) was an American physician-researcher, the discoverer of gelsolin and inventor of BioAegis technology estate. He was also a professor of medicine emeritus, Harvard Medical School and American Cancer Society Clinical Research Professor Emeritus. He was Chief Scientific Advisor to BioAegis Therapeutics Inc., a clinical stage biotech company developing a unique non-immunosuppressive anti-inflammatory with potential to address a wide range of infectious, inflammatory and degenerative diseases. He is the holder of more than 50 patents and authored more than 300 papers, studies, and reviews. He was also a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the National Academy of Medicine, past editor-in-chief of Current Opinion in Hematology and past editor of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, past president of the American Society of Hematology and the American Society for Clinical Investigation.
