    Ep. 349 - Start-up Spotlight, Compounding Wegovy & Neuropysch

    2025 marked the end of a four-year slide in series A financings for biotechs, with 144 biotechs raising an aggregate of $8 billion, up $1 billion from the prior two years. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s Danielle Golovin assesses which companies VCs backed last year and what their investments say about where technology is headed. Washington Editor Steve Usdin offers a perspective on why compounded Wegovy is an assault on the biopharma industry and also explains how the spending bill signed into law last week is a rebuke to proposed White House biomedical cuts. And Executive Editor Selina Koch unpacks her interview on The BioCentury Show podcast with neuroscientist and Seaport Chair Steven Paul, noting that while serendipity drives drug discovery in psychiatry, it’s engineering that gets it across the finish line.

    Ep. 347 - Speeding China's Innovation. Plus: Neuro Catalysts and Newcos

    New rules in China will accelerate the country’s cell and gene therapy sector by reshaping how investigator-initiated trials are conducted and commercialized. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s analysts discuss the new framework and why it will create a powerful incentive for deploying new gene and cell therapies. Executive Editor Selina Koch discusses which milestones she is watching in neurology in the year ahead, from psychedelics to Alzheimer's disease. Finally, Senior Biopharma Analyst Danielle Golovin discusses a pair of stories from BioCentury’s Emerging Company Profile series: one focused on Yale spinout Bexorg Inc., which is rethinking CNS drug discovery with a whole-human-brain model, and another on Elkedonia S.A.S., a French start-up aiming at ELK1 to reboot neuroplasticity in depression.

    Ep. 345 - TAC to the Future. Plus: GSK Deal, MFN

    Next-generation induced proximity technologies are coming of age after a decade of industry focus on PROTACs. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s analysts discuss Senior Biopharma Analyst Danielle Golovin’s four-part analysis of how next-generation targeting chimeras (TACs) are evolving. The analysts assess the $2.2 billion takeout of Rapt Therapeutics by GSK, which gave the pharma an allergy asset that the biotech sourced in China in 2024, and movement in Washington on priority review vouchers, NIH’s budget and the White House’s “most favored nation” drug pricing policy. The analysts also discuss takeaways from their meetings on the sidelines of the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.

    Ep. 344 - JPM Momentum and Asia’s Hotbeds of Innovation

    The J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference kicked off this week with sunny skies over San Francisco and more financial momentum than the biotech industry has seen in years. On a special “on the road” edition of the BioCentury This Week podcast, recorded on the sidelines of the annual JPM conference, special guests joined BioCentury’s analysts to discuss the biotech ecosystems in Asia. The wide-ranging conversation spans dealmaking, including the pricing dynamics of assets in China and RNAi’s prospects of becoming the region’s next hot modality; plus the state of the capital markets, the global implications of “China speed” in the clinic, and what’s changing for start-ups in Japan. Joining BioCentury were Panacea Venture’s James Huang, MayTech Global Investments’ Ingrid Yin, DLA Piper’s Ting Xiao and CBRE’s Matt Gardner. The podcast was recorded at the 12th East-West Healthcare Reception, hosted by BioCentury, MayTech Global and Panacea.

    Ep. 342 - 2026 Biotech Kickoff

    The New Year begins with biotech running along parallel storylines. There’s cause for optimism as the industry’s financing gears have begun to churn again and innovation remains as strong as it has ever been, while there's cause for concern as the world’s most stable, progressive, science-based regulatory system has become unpredictable amid new leadership at HHS, FDA, and NIH. On the first episode of the BioCentury This Week podcast’s seventh year, BioCentury’s analysts assess the state of play for biotech in the U.S., Europe, and Asia. The discussion ranges from recent changes at NIH to what’s next for rare pediatric disease priority review vouchers, and from Europe’s opportunity as FDA enters uncertain terrain to Japan’s evolving biotech landscape. Early bird rates for BioCentury and BayHelix’s fifth East-West Biopharma Summit end Friday. Act now to join investors, dealmakers and innovators in Seoul this March to source innovation from Asia, or accelerate your own pipeline by finding the right Asia partner.
