Navigating U.S.-China Biotech Competition

Rather than fretting over increasing competition from Chinese life sciences companies, biotechs in the U.S. should rise to the challenge and learn from their competitors. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors discuss the increasing pace of innovation from China and how U.S. biotechs need to meet the moment, delivering key takeaways from Editor in Chief Simone Fishburn’s fireside chat with industry leader John Maraganore at the BIO CEO & Investor Forum in New York last week. The team also discusses the fallout from staffing cuts at FDA — severely damaged morale among remaining staff and the potential for a higher approval bar, among others — leadership at the agency and the state of biotech IPOs on NASDAQ and in Korea.
