375: Startups push the FDA and biotech booms in North Carolina

Can Trump take credit for North Carolina's booming biopharma industry? Which drugs could get a shortcut to the market? And who wore a tuxedo to the STAT Summit?

We discuss all that and more in the latest episode of "The Readout LOUD."
Elaine is out this week, so Adam and Allison dive into the latest news in the life science industry together, including the two companies pushing the Food and Drug Administration, the first recipients of the Commissioner’s National Priority Review voucher, and why Flagship Pioneering founder Nobuar Afeyan thinks that mRNA vaccines are the canary in the coal mine that is the drug industry. Adam also asks Allison about her trip to North Carolina to check out the local biomanufacturing boom.
