TAMPA, Fla., Oct. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Neurolief, a global medical device company that is delivering life-changing neurotechnology innovations, today announced the appointment of Steve Beller, an experienced senior commercial leader in neurotechnology, as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO).
In his new role, Mr. Beller will be responsible for the strategic planning, commercial partnerships and preparations for the market launch of Neurolief's novel brain neuromodulation technology for treatment of Major Depression. Steve has a demonstrated history of success in building diverse and high-performing commercial organizations in the neuromodulation and mental health markets.
"I am delighted to welcome Steve to the Neurolief team," said Scott Drees, CEO of Neurolief. "After working with him for a decade at St. Jude Medical, I appreciate his leadership and expertise in neuromodulation and mental health markets, as well as his passion for making a difference for the clinicians and patients we serve."
Prior to joining Neurolief, Mr. Beller spent the last 20 years leading large scale commercialization of neuromodulation technologies, using electricity to diagnose and treat the brain and spinal cord for various disease states including depression and chronic pain. Fourteen of those years were with St. Jude Medical and Abbott Neuromodulation where he served as area vice president leading the western half of the United States. For the last six years, Steve has been successfully running North America for Nexstim, a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) company focused on brain diseases, helping lead them to profitability and launching their first therapeutic system to treat major depression.

I am confident that Steve's extensive experience will help us make it available for the millions of patients in desperate need."
Depression is a leading contributor to disability worldwide.1 Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a common yet serious mood disorder in which people experience depressive symptoms that impair their social, occupational, or other important functioning such as depressed mood, loss of interest or pleasure in daily activities and suicidal tendencies. MDD affects more than 21 million US adults, or about 8.4% of the US adult population, in a given year.2 In 2018, the incremental economic burden of MDD was an estimated $326 billion in the US alone.3
