Sammy Kimball for STAT

What can Homer teach us about biotech? Has Big Science gotten too big? And what’s the future of treating Alzheimer’s disease?

We cover all that and more this week on “The Readout LOUD,” STAT’s biotech podcast. Neil Kumar, CEO of BridgeBio, joins us to talk about how his small company came to develop what could be a big drug — and why classical Greek literature remains relevant. We also discuss the latest news in the life sciences, including the abrupt resignation of the celebrity scientist who led Stanford University and the implications of tornado damage at a Pfizer plant.

For more on what we cover, here’s the news on BridgeBio; here’s more on the Stanford president; here’s the latest on the Pfizer plant; here’s the story on Eli Lilly’s Alzheimer’s data; here’s where you can find episodes of Color Code; and here’s where you can subscribe to the First Opinion Podcast.
