Hey STAT Team - As a long time reader and biotech CEO, I wanted to pass on hopefully constructive feedback on your show in general and this specific episode. I really enjoyed hearing the inside scoop from Bryan Roberts on Kelonia and the Lilly deal. That was great. Please do more of that! In the constructive feedback category, the one thing that I would caution you on, both in this episode and others, is the trivial nature (joking, in fact) in how you handle very, very tough times for these comp... more
Thoughtful and concise discussion about drug development processes. I found this illuminating
and hopeful
Great coverage by the three hosts.
Only area of improvement is if the audio editor can adjust the volume for all speakers to be equal because for some reason Elaine’s mic tends to be the loudest and I have to keep adjusting the volume for each speaker.
This is a great overview of the biopharm space with an engaging and fun style. I also like the unrelated chat amongst the team, particularly as a fellow fan of the Great British Bake Off, given this is an industry that can often take itself very seriously!
This podcast was a gold mine a few years back. Really miss that run you had. Adam is good but even he was better back when surrounded with higher caliber cohosts.
