PLAINSBORO, NJ — August 24, 2012 – The rapidly growing, new type of drug treatments known as targeted therapies has inspired a spin-off at a leading national healthcare publisher. Plainsboro-based MJH & Associates, which also owns Intellisphere, LLC, publisher of titles such as Oncology Live, Oncology & Biotechnology News, Oncology Nursing News, Urology in Cancer Care and Onclive.com, is expanding and introducing a New York operation.
The new entity, “Targeted Healthcare Communications,” will be based in Westchester, NY. This New York-area business unit will immediately assume publication of existing titles International Journal for Targeted Therapies, Targeted Therapy News, Oncology Fellows and Horizons. Additionally, the New York team will begin developing other specialized, targeted therapy publications and expanding its digital offering.
“This dedicated model gives our targeted therapies team the flexibility needed to quickly respond to emerging science and to service the unique information needs of this audience,” said Tighe Blazier, COO of MJH & Associates.
The company has appointed Peter Ciszewski president and managing director of Targeted Healthcare Communications’ New York office. Ciszewski was formerly president of the Intellisphere Oncology team in Plainsboro. Lisa Greene, vice president of sales and marketing, and Scott Harwood, director of sales, will also join the New York team.
Jack Lepping, formerly an executive vice president, has been appointed president of the Intellisphere Oncology Specialty Group in Plainsboro, with an emphasis on new publications and product development. The other titles published by Intellisphere will be unchanged, and Oncology Live remains the official journal of Physicians’ Education Resource (PER), a leading provider of continuing medical education for oncology physicians and technicians.
