Jumo Health Appoints Brittany Erana Chief Executive Officer to Lead Next Phase of Growth
Erana joins the award-winning clinical trial solutions company to build patient-first solutions that accelerate study participation
NEW HAVEN, Conn., June 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Jumo Health, a global leader in optimizing the patient experience in clinical trials, today announced the appointment of Brittany Erana as Chief Executive Officer. With more than 20 years of experience in digitally enabled research and patient-centered innovation, Erana will lead the company's next stage of strategic growth focused on increasing patient activation and reducing trial dropout rates.
Prior to joining Jumo Health, Erana served as General Manager of patient first digital solutions at PPD, one of the world's leading contract research organizations. There, she oversaw digital transformation strategies that modernized clinical research operations, enhanced patient experience, and improved data collection.
"Building the future of healthcare with the patient at the center has been the throughline of my career," said Erana. "I'm thrilled to be joining Jumo Health at this pivotal moment to help transform how people are engaged in clinical research from first touch to final visit, and improving how our clients bring new therapies to market for those who need them most."
Erana will be responsible for guiding Jumo Health through a dynamic phase of growth and transformation in partnership with Falfurrias Management Partners, who acquired Jumo Health in August 2024. Her focus will be on expanding Jumo Health's capabilities through organic and acquisitive growth opportunities, enabling the company to address key friction points in trial awareness, accessibility, and adherence, especially for underrepresented patient populations.
"As trial dropout rates rise, protocol complexity increases, and timelines lengthen, sponsors need more than study awareness campaigns; they need personalized, scalable patient experience solutions," said Adam Cossman, Jumo Health's Executive Chairman and an executive advisor on the Falfurrias team. "Brittany's leadership will be pivotal in meeting this need and building upon Jumo Health's legacy in clinical innovation."
