Meet Fred Lowery

Meet the man who progressed from GM to Maytag to become the Senior Vice President and President for Thermo Fisher Scientific’s Life Sciences Solutions and Laboratory Products business, and in April 2019 appointed as a member of the DuPont Board of Directors and was recently named one of the most influential people in the fight against COVID 19
