No word yet on why Murray left or where he might be going. He was removed from the firm's website within the past 10 days.

As of last check, his board seats included Crestcom International, Infogroup Inc., Jetro JMDH Holdings, LHP Hospital Group, Octagon Credit Investors, Ollie’s Bargain Outlet and Strongwood Insurance Holdings.

CCMP has not yet returned requests for comment, including on what happens to those board seats or who might succeed Murray as CEO.

• Deal data: The Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO) has released a lengthy white paper on the past decade of VC funding for the biotech sector. Its headline finding is that venture funding for biotech R&D fell by 21% between the five-year period before the financial crisis (2004-2008) and the subsequent five years (2009-2013). Not terribly surprising to anyone who has watched biotech VC firms fall by the wayside, or as generalist firms have marginalized their life sciences practices.

More interesting, however, is where the big funding cuts are coming. Namely, in areas of the largest medical need. For example, funding for novel drug R&D in diabetes fell by 81% between those five-year periods. Psych fell by 56%. Gastrointestinal by 49%, respiratory by 41% and cardiovascular by 33%. On the flip side, funding for rare diseases increased.
