Qiagen board member Lawrence Rosen, the former finance chief of postal services group Deutsche Post (DE:DPWGn), has been elected to replace Bjoerklund as chairman, the company said in a statement on Friday, without providing a reason for the departure.

Thermo Fisher last week walked away from its 11.3 billion euro ($13.30 billion) takeover deal after Qiagen’s earnings were boosted by coronavirus diagnostics, leaving its shareholders reluctant to cash out.
