Dyne Therapeutics, a biotechnology company pioneering targeted therapies for patients with serious muscle diseases, today announced the appointment of Lawrence Klein, Ph.D., to its Board of Directors.

“Dyne's FORCE therapeutic platform achieves a unique combination of tissue-specific delivery, high potency and tolerability to enable a broad product pipeline,” said Dr. Klein. “I look forward to working closely with the board and leadership team to execute our growth strategy and explore new partnerships to develop life-transforming therapies.”

“We are pleased to welcome Lawrence to the Board as we rapidly advance our platform of targeted therapies for serious muscle diseases, including DM1, DMD and FSHD," said Jason P.
