    A Finnish biotech is making progress on Parkinson's disease with support from The Michael J. Fox Foundation

    Parkinsons disease impacts some 10 million people worldwide and current approaches to treating the condition almost exclusively focus on addressing symptoms – there is, as of yet, no cure. One Finnish biotech, however, is not focused on alleviating symptoms but on modifying the course of the disease itself. Their hope is to be able to stop and even reverseneurodegenerative diseases like Parkinsons, and they have the backing of significant players, such as the Michael J Fox Foundation, to do just that. This week I spoke to Antti Vuolanto, CEO of Herantis Pharma, about the work his company is doing, the science behind their approach, and the advantages and challenges of working in biotech in the Nordics. 01:10               Meet Antti Vuolanto 05:10               The biotech landscape in the Nordics 07:07               Herantis Pharma and its mission 09:38               Treating symptoms versus disease modification 13:31               Herantis in relation to other Parkinson’s disease companies 15:47               HER-096 26:24               The global burden of Parkinson’s disease and the unmet need 28:56               The role of patient and advocacy groups 30:11               The future of Parkinson’s disease treatment 31:52               How the Nordics can develop and expand their biotech sector 36:33               Stay up to date on Herantis and their work Interested in being a sponsor of an episode of our podcast?

    How RNAi is expanding from a therapy of choice for rare disease into treating common conditions

    RNAi has changed the way that rare diseases are treated - is it about to do the same for more common conditions? Alnylam was the very first company to translate RNAi from Nobel Prize winning science into a commercially scalable platform. Founded in 2002, the company today has five different RNAi therapies on the market and a pipeline that continues to expand. While their early focus was on rare disease, today they are expanding into more common conditions, partnering with top pharma companies to bring next-generation therapies to market. This week I sat down with Paul Nioi, Senior Vice President of Research at Alnylam. Paul has more than 20 year’s experience in biotech and biopharma, and he walked me through Alnylam’s mission and place in the biotech ecosystem, the science of RNAi, the early success treating metabolic disease, and exactly where their platform is expanding into now and in the near future. Paul explains the capacity of RNAi to address neurological and infectious disease, the value of large-scale genomic initiatives, and how he sees drug discovery evolving in the years ahead. 01:29               Meet Paul Nioi 08:56               Alnylam, its mission, and its science 14:35               Two types of partnerships: top pharma, and genomic initiatives 22:34               RNAi therapies on the market for rare disease 27:29               Expanding into more common conditions 32:17               INHBE mutations and cardiometabolic disease 35:01               Working with Roche to target hypertension 38:58               Looking forward: Alnylam’s platform in the near future 41:49               What role for national genomic initiatives? 45:16               RNAi’s place in a future of precision medicine Interested in being a sponsor of an episode of our podcast?

    Are next-generation psychedelics the way forward for addressing treatment resistant depression?

    Nearly 1 billion people around the world suffer from mental health disorders, with the global economic cost of those disorders expected to reach $6 trillion by 2030.  One of the most common of those mental health disorders is depressive disorder, commonly called depression, with some 280 million people suffering from either mild, moderate or severe depression. Conventional treatments for depression such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, can work for many people but for some suffering from treatment resistant depression, options can be limited, but some new therapies are in the clinic and might offer some hope.  Beckley PsyTech is a UK biotech that is working with next-generation psychedelic-based compounds administered in a short clinic visit once every two months. With positive results from their recent Phase 2B study and a partnership with atai Life Sciences, Beckley believes they are on their way to redefining how depression is treated. 01:38               Meet Cosmo Feilding 03:04               Beckley PsyTech, its mission and its focus 08:36               BPL-003 and next generation psychedelics 11:16               Intranasal delivery and its advantages 14:26               Psychedelics in the clinic and Phase IIb trial results 18:32               Safety: suicide signals and adverse events 21:02               Applications for psychedelics outside of depression 24:11               The global economic costs of mental health disorders 27:40               Comparing Beckley PsyTech to Compass Pathways and GH Research 35:26               Regulatory hurdles and the stigma around psychedelics 38:14               Partnering with atai Life Sciences and the future of Beckley PsyTech 43:16               Milestones ahead for Beckley PsyTech 45:44               A future vision for patients suffering from depression Interested in being a sponsor of an episode of our podcast?

    Day One DNA: How and why the UK is betting on whole genome sequencing for every newborn

    The UK is preparing to change the game for healthcare - but why, how, and what will it cost? Recently the UK government announced plans to sequence the DNA of every baby born in that country. A part of the country’s 10 Year Health Plan, the program aims to identify rare genetic diseases early, prevent harms from delayed treatment and reduce future healthcare costs for the NHS. Yet along with those potential upsides come a range of ethical and practical questions, too: who guards the sequenced data, who can access it, how can consent be informed, managed and withdrawn years later, and what is the best way to gather the genetic material required to fully sequence the DNA of 700,000 infants each year? This week, I spoke to Neil Ward of PacBio to understand more about this program, compare it to other national genome sequencing programs in Europe and Asia, and discuss the promise of unlocking the ‘language of life’. 02:02               Meet Neil Ward 09:10               PacBio, its mission, and its current focus 17:13               The UK national newborn gene sequencing effort 21:20               Ethical and practical challenges for national newborn sequencing 24:34               Short-read versus long-read sequencing 30:48               Dried blood spots versus cord blood 35:57               Lessons for the UK from Thailand 38:58               Trends in national newborn screening programs worldwide 41:46               What parents and policymakers must know 45:20               Exciting things in the genomics space on the horizon This episode is brought to you by MedChemExpress.

    Meatly's innovative cultivated meat is already delighting pets, are humans next?

    Is cultivated meat the future of pet food? And is there a place for cultivated meat on human dinner tables, too? Traditional agricultural methods are slow, require large tracts of land, significant energy and environmental inputs, and – somewhat obviously – the slaughter of hundreds of millions of animals every year. Cultivated meat – that is meat that is grown in a lab – requires little land, less energy, and in the case of Meatly, nothing more than a single cell from a single chicken egg, once.  This week I sat down with Owen Ensor, CEO of UK biotech startup Meatly, to talk all things cultivated meat. He explains the science behind his company’s cultivated meat process, the significant cost savings that Meatly has made to bring down prices for their product, and how his company became the very first in Europe to have a cultivated meat product approved for sale, in the hands of consumers, and in the bellies of beloved cats and dogs. 01:29               Meet Owen Ensor 05:10               Meatly and its mission 10:12               The science of cultivated meat 19:41               Common criticisms of cultivated meat 25:33               Regulation, and geographical diversity in regulation 32:24               Looking forward: from pets to human consumption?
