Covid vaccines for the youngest kids are up for review, but which jab — Moderna or Pfizer — will parents choose? What’s on tap for ASCO, the biggest cancer research conference of the year?
And a biotech CEO has been arrested in an alleged murder-for-hire scheme. We cover all that and more this week on “The Readout LOUD,” STAT’s biotech podcast. First, we chat about the latest
news in the life sciences, including a preview of the American Society for Clinical Oncology annual meeting, a biotech analyst’s speculative picks for a new Biogen CEO, the arrest of
Enochian Biosciences CEO on murder charges, and mounting concerns about Covid rebound following treatment with Paxlovid. Then, we’re joined by emergency department physician and parent
Jeremy Faust to discuss his take on the Covid vaccine data for children under 5. For more on what we cover, here’s more on vaccines for children under 5; here’s where you can sign up for the
