“I’m incredibly proud to share that Simon J. Hollingsworth has been appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the King’s Birthday Honours for outstanding services to biomedical research and medicine development.
This is a well-deserved recognition of Simon’s dedication to collaboration and innovation and the impact he continues to make for patients and the broader research community. Over more than 15 years at AstraZeneca, he has been a driving force behind advancing transformative medicines, working across sectors between industry, academia, and the wider scientific ecosystem to ensure science can be translated into positive impact on patients’ lives.
Congratulations, Simon. Your recognition is incredibly well earned, and AstraZeneca is fortunate to have your leadership as we continue to advance our ambition to eliminate cancer as a cause of death.”
