On this week’s episode of “The Readout LOUD,” we bring you a special conversation with Stelios Papadopolous, also know as the “godfather” of biotech. He sat down for an on-stage chat with our colleague Damian Garde Thursday afternoon during STAT’s Breakthrough Summit East event in New York City.

We also chat about the latest biotech news, including new weight loss data from Structure Therapeutics and Eli Lilly, plus recent staff departures from the Food and Drug Administration.
