Fenwal Inc., a global medical technology company focused on
improving blood collection, separation, safety and availability,
announced today William H. Cork has joined the company as senior vice

Mr. Cork joins Fenwal from Northbrook, Illinois-based Nanosphere

"Bill is a strong and experienced scientific leader, with deep
knowledge of advanced molecular science, software development and
transfusion medicine with clinical relationships worldwide," Labrum
said. "His decade-long tenure with us in the 1990s was one of the
most innovative and productive periods in Fenwal's recent history."
Mr. Cork holds more than 15 medical-technology patents and has
another seven pending. He earned a bachelor's degree in electrical
engineering from Northwestern University, where he also minored in
