In 2023, STAT launched a brand-new home for our subscribers to connect with each other and with their favorite STAT journalists. On STAT+ Connect, you can find job postings; comment on STAT articles (since we have closed comments on article pages); discuss industry events with other people who work in biotech, pharma, public health advocacy, PR, and more; read insights and exclusive material posted by STAT reporters and editors; and watch events, including live interviews and text-based Ask Me Anything chats.

Last week, Ed Silverman, AKA Pharmalot, hosted an AMA titled “Stump Pharmalot.” During the AMA, Ed discussed gene therapy, his proudest career moments, what he took in high school instead of chemistry, coffee (or, as he calls it, “cups of stimulation”), and more.

Below, you can find a lightly edited transcript of the conversation.
