Jason Cook, MD resumed the role of Olfax CEO in 2026 to lead the company into clinical-stage development. After cofounding the company and raising seed capital as the founding CEO, he transitioned into the Chief Medical Officer role from 2021 to 2026 to lead Olfax’s clinical, regulatory, and product development strategies, and build the development team behind OFX-001.

He also serves as a Migraine Division Speaker and Consultant for Pfizer and Abbvie Pharmaceuticals.
