Why has it taken so long for the world to get malaria vaccines? What relationship should drug companies have with patient advocates? And who in biotech is having a brat summer?
We discuss all that and more in this week’s episode of “The Readout LOUD,” STAT’s biotech podcast. Andrew Joseph, our Europe correspondent, joins us to talk about his special report on the 40-year quest to develop the world’s first malaria vaccines.
We also cover the latest news in the biotech industry, including Sarepta Therapeutics’ move to censor a patient video, data from a new Duchenne gene therapy, and a campaign by Mount Sinai to stifle debate about its controversial brain research following revelations made by a STAT investigation.
