We discuss all that and more on this week's episode of “The Readout LOUD,” STAT's weekly biotech podcast. Biotech investor Rod Wong joins us to talk about why an industry-patient coalition he's part of sent a letter to President Trump asking for more regulatory flexibility at the FDA. We also discuss the U.S. approval of Eli Lilly's obesity pill, recent deal-making by large pharma companies, a strange story about promotion of psychedelic drugs on YouTube, and more.
