Ep. 129 - Burr Bill, Novartis Makeover, ALS Update

Sen. Richard Burr’s new approach to a critical medical products user fee bill funding FDA must be taken seriously because the clock is ticking, and it’s ticking loudly, Washington Editor Steve Usdin said on the latest BioCentury This Week podcast. Usdin explains why Burr has introduced the bare-bones legislation and what’s at stake for industry in the weeks ahead. BioCentury's editors also discuss FDA’s neurodegeneration blueprint, clinical updates in ALS from Clene and base editing from Verve, and plans to reshape Novartis.
