Is less regulation by the Food and Drug Administration good for the biotech industry? Do vaccine makers like Pfizer have a target on their back now? And will the “Make America Healthy Again” movement helmed by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dampen the obesity drug market?
We discuss all that and more on this week’s episode of “The Readout LOUD,” STAT’s biotech podcast. To dig into how the election results could affect all things biopharma, we brought on three guests for this episode: Lizzy Lawrence, STAT’s FDA reporter, Baird analyst Brian Skorney, and longtime biotech executive Daphne Zohar.
