Biotech’s next gold rush, GLP-1 shortages, and STAT Summit highlights

Why are biotech investors so interested in autoimmune disease? Who is behind the telehealth GLP-1 boom? And what were our favorite moments from the STAT Summit this week?

We talk about all that and more on this week’s episode of “The Readout LOUD,” STAT’s biotech podcast. We chat about investors’ interest in using CAR-T to treat autoimmune conditions, the latest developments with the supply of Eli Lilly’s blockbuster weight loss drug, and the invisible medical groups behind the dozens of telehealth platforms providing GLP-1 drugs.
