  • Episodes are great, Newsletter no no no

    I learn so much every episode. The recent episode featuring Recursion was especially helpful.

    The only annoying thing, I signed up for the newsletter after all the talk about it not being “another newsletter” but it’s actually worse than most. WAY too many headlines, poor formatting makes it hard to follow or focus on any particular one, the thing is poorly designed and packed with jargon.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A Rescue Model For Shelved Drug Candidates With Annette Bakker, Ph.D. And Andrew Lo, Ph.D.
Q: How does the matchmaking mechanism work, and how will it connect developers and investors?
Lo proposes creating a verified repository of shelved drug candidates and connecting asset owners with potential developers, investors, and patient advocacy groups. The database would help interested parties assess candidates and bring capital and expertise to development.
A Rescue Model For Shelved Drug Candidates With Annette Bakker, Ph.D. And Andrew Lo, Ph.D.
Q: What caught your interest initially about repurposing discontinued drug assets?
Lo became interested after friends and family faced cancer and he saw how financing gaps can prevent promising drugs from reaching patients. He began applying financial-engineering tools, including portfolio theory and risk management, to drug development.
AI, China, And Biotech Investing With SR One's Simeon George, M.D.
Q: What criteria drive SR One's founder and leadership evaluation when considering new investments?
The emphasis is on world-class leadership with the ability to recruit and build strong teams around a core founder. Red flags include lack of transparency or failure to acknowledge and mitigate blind spots, with a focus on differentiation and the ability to create meaningful patient impact.
AI, China, And Biotech Investing With SR One's Simeon George, M.D.
Q: SR One spun out of GSK in 2020. Why was independence the strategic move, and how has fundraising progressed in that transition?
Spin-out allowed SR One to broaden its LP base and operate with greater autonomy while continuing to benefit from GSK's support. The initial fund raised during the COVID-driven period leveraged Zoom fundraising and industry interest in biotech, followed by a second fund as the portfolio and market environment evolved.
Reprogramming Cancer And Competing With China With Earli's Cyriac Roeding
Q: What implications do you see from China's biotech push and how should the US respond?
Roeding argues for global leadership through sustained funding, suggests a sovereign wealth fund to flatten biotech funding cycles, and discusses the need for independent, top-tier investment governance.
