Drug policy debate today is like a wetland. It’s the heart of the ecosystem that has to be preserved at all costs — or else we lose the wetlands, the shore, everything.
In this episode, we interview Jean-Francois Formela, Partner at Atlas Venture, about what brought him to Washington and his views on the government’s role in drug development.
Join us as we discuss:
Where are we going in drug development
The role of new modalities
Investor goals: great science, great company, good return
A future in which governments enable the biopharmaceutical community to cure disease
