Moore brings more than 35 years of experience in the medtech industry, including nearly 20 years spent at Boston Scientific. There, he took up multiple senior executive roles, including president of inter-continental and distribution management.
Most recently, Moore served as chair of the board at LivaNova. Before the merger of Sorin and Cyberonics that formed LivaNova, he was president and CEO of Cyberonics for eight years. Additionally, Moore brings significant board-level executive experience in medtech. He served as chair at Brainscope, GI Dynamics and the Medical Device Manufacturers Association (MDMA).
As chair of CMR Surgical, the company expects Moore to continue driving its growth strategy and bring its Versius surgical robot to more hospitals around the world. CEO Supratim Bose said in a news release that Moore brings “invaluable” sector experience and leadership.
“The surgical robotics sector is one of the most exciting in the medtech space, and Versius is a truly differentiated technology with many large untapped markets yet to be reached, and more patients to be served,” Moore said. “I look forward to working with the Board, Supratim and the leadership team to help realize the vision of the company and true promise of Versius.”
Versius, a small-scale surgical robotic system, features collaborative arms and bedside units for direct patient access. It also features offers of port placement to best suit the needs of each patient. CMR Surgical designed Versius to enable surgeons to perform more minimal access surgery. Its minimally invasive approach assists surgeons accessing the lungs, thymus and esophagus.
