Monell Names New Chair

The Monell Chemical Senses Center (Philadelphia) has elected Dwight Riskey chair of its board of directors.

He currently is principal of Riskey Business Solutions, LLC, a strategic marketing consulting firm.

Of the appointment, Riskey said, “Monell is world renowned for its scientific contributions. My job and the job of our entire board of directors are to facilitate the pursuit of that science.
