April 3, 2003 — Three Janus Capital Management analysts have been promoted to portfolio manager and will help oversee three of its stock mutual funds, the company said.

Andy Acker will join the Janus Global Life Sciences Fund (JAGLX), Matt Ankrum will help run Janus Strategic Value Fund (JSVAX), and Douglas Kirkpatrick will help pilot Janus Worldwide Fund (JAWWX).

Acker, who joins Tom Malley on the Global Life Sciences fund, has analyzed biotechnology, pharmaceutical and medical technologies companies since coming to Janus in 1999.
