Show notes

The FDA has rolled out an internal AI tool called Elsa that, unlike its namesake Disney character, can’t seem to let go of mistakes. Our colleague Brittany Trang joins to explain. And it’s always a fun podcast when we can discuss a biotech acquisition. This week, we’ll chat about Sanofi’s $9 billion offer for Blueprint Medicines. But first, our cohost Elaine Chen has a new story published this week that examines the reasons behind Novo Nordisk’s fall and what it’s doing to catch up.
