Historia de origen

A career scientist and executive who transitioned from public health advocacy to lead a clinical-stage DNA medicine developer.

Primeros años: Trained as a molecular biologist and cell cycle geneticist, with a background centered on patient-focused biotechnology.

Primer gran salto: Served as CEO of Aeras, a non-profit organization dedicated to developing vaccines for tuberculosis, providing a platform for her later executive leadership roles.

Camino al CEO: Joined Inovio as Chief Operating Officer in 2019, leveraging her background in vaccine development to navigate the company through a complex period after the COVID-19 pandemic, eventually succeeding the founder in 2022.

Visión original: To accelerate the development of DNA medicines and translate complex platform technology into approved patient treatments.

Dr. Jacqueline Shea built her career at the intersection of rigorous scientific research and executive management in the life sciences sector. Prior to her time at Inovio, she established herself as a leader in global health while running Aeras, a non-profit dedicated to fighting tuberculosis. Her pivot to Inovio in 2019 as COO was a strategic move that saw her eventually ascend to the CEO role in 2022. Her leadership journey is defined by a shift from the founder-driven culture of Inovio to a more operationally focused, clinical-development-centric phase.
