I AM BIO

Biotech Changed COVID. But Did COVID Change Biotech?

Episode Summary

Science—particularly biotechnology—helped change the course of COVID with the development of effective vaccines and therapeutics. However, it is also true that COVID has changed biotechnology. This I AM BIO podcast will look at the way biotech addressed the crisis and explores how the crisis, in turn, changed the biotech industry—its reputation, its exposure to a broader audience and its willingness to adopt lessons learned from the pandemic. This episode is sponsored by FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies.
