Quince Therapeutics, Inc.'s leadership, from its insiders' filings and its current reports: the chief executive on the record is Thye, Dirk (CEO and CMO, as filed), filing under that title since the record of its people begins (2022-05-19), so the years before are not on the record and this part is not read; the 14 officers and directors filing in the last fifteen months have been on the record a median of 3.1 years (bottom 12%); 11 officer or director changes were reported on Form 8-K since 2023-11-13, against the 14 people in charge now (bottom 26%; fewer changes for each person reads higher) (the Form 4 record, its Form 8-K reports).
