Interest in Gene Therapy Business and Upcoming Mash Drug Approval

Though the year began with a banking crisis and has been marked with layoffs and restructurings, we have managed to avoid a feared recession.

We continue our annual tradition to look back across the year in biotech and ahead to JPMorgan and beyond with Adam Feuerstein, Polk award-winning journalist and senior biotech writer for STAT. We spoke to Feuerstein about the biotech news that shaped 2023, the year’s best and worst CEOs, and what’s ahead in 2024.
