  Live from DC: Will Congress put a stop to China biotech deals? 17.09.2026 24мин

  There isn't a lawmaker on Capitol Hill who's publicly taken a more conservative stance to biopharma's deal spree in China than Rep. John Moolenaar (R-MI), chairman of the House Select Committee on China. He's been the architect of recent legislative proposals that'd clamp down on deals there and also what data regulators can review. So how did this issue rise to his attention? And how committed is he to pressing the issue? Live from Endpoints’ ⁠China Biotech Debate: Washington, DC⁠ ⁠on September 15, 2026.

  Live from DC: Is secrecy the solution? 17.09.2026 26мин

  What do you do when you announce a drug program, then turn around and find out that there are a dozen competitors in China working on the same idea? For many US biotechs, the answer has been to hide their work as long as possible, limiting what they share with the outside world in the hope that it will keep new competitors from emerging (and passing them by). It's a tactic that's been adopted broadly in US biotech, and has led to calls for changes to the patent system. But is it a long-term solution or a short-term fix? And what are the unintended consequences of an R&D and intellectual property system that's less transparent? Live from Endpoints’ ⁠China Biotech Debate: Washington, DC⁠ ⁠on September 15, 2026.

  Live from DC: What do we really mean when we talk about biosecurity risk and China? 17.09.2026 26мин

  Huge genetic databases. Drug ingredient supply chains. A next pandemic. War with Taiwan. Economic competition. A huge number of topics and scenarios get lumped into the "China biosecurity" conversation — some present and real, some far-fetched and far-off. So what are we really talking about when we talk about China and bio-risk? What deserves the attention and policy action? Which ones are fear-mongering?

  Live from DC: Can the FDA steer clinical trials back to the US? 17.09.2026 23мин

  If investment restrictions are the potential consequences to a drug industry that's looked overseas for new assets and early trials, then what's the incentive to come back? The FDA is working to figure it out, and a new agency pilot program is meant to reinvigorate early human research in the US. But is it enough? And is the FDA moving with the urgency that many in the industry say is required? Live from Endpoints’ China Biotech Debate: Washington, DC⁠ on September 15, 2026.

  Trust, MAHA, and what’s next for the CDC 24.04.2026 34мин

  The CDC hasn’t had a Senate-confirmed director since August. But last week, President Trump announced his next pick — Erica Schwartz, a former deputy surgeon general. She’s a more traditional public-health choice, and if confirmed, faces the formidable tasks of stabilizing the agency and working with RFK Jr., whose anti-vax and MAHA allies have already criticized the pick. We’re joined by Brinda Adhikari, the host of podcast Why Should I Trust You?, to talk about where the CDC and MAHA go from here. Stay ahead of biopharma.

  The politics of vaccines — with former congressman Dr. Michael Burgess 31.03.2026 35мин

Is the new focus working, and will it last? We’re joined by former US Representative Dr. Michael Burgess to talk through the political landscape around vaccines and why he thinks it’s a liability for Republicans.

  Who won the Hims vs Novo feud? 10.03.2026 28мин

  Hims and Novo seem to have made up.

Now that the dust has started to settle, who came out on top, what does the deal mean for each company — and will the peace last?

Friday on the show, Endpoints reporters Max Bayer and Zach Brennan will talk with NSCEB Executive Director Caitlin Frazer about the group’s slate of proposals and the role policy changes can play in shoring up US biotech.

  Moderna vs the FDA 11.02.2026 30мин

Moderna said on Tuesday that the agency won’t review its mRNA-based flu vaccine — and through unusually public disclosures, accused the FDA of changing agreed-upon standards for its trial. And in responses to Endpoints’ Q1 Biopharma Sentiment Index, industry insiders unloaded their frustrations and fury with US officials and the regulatory system. Today on Post-Hoc Live, the Endpoints team unpacks the many, many straws that could have broken this camel’s back.
