How Drug Discovery Is Tackling Global Health Challenges
In this DDW podcast episode, host Bruno Quinney discusses two recent DDW articles: one on the urgent need to combat antimicrobial resistance (AMR) with insights from Professor Janet Hemingway, and another on the rapid expansion of mRNA therapeutics. Hemingway highlights the growing pipeline of novel antibiotics and vaccines, the challenges SMEs face in clinical development, and the need for stronger incentives to re‑engage big pharma. The mRNA segment outlines how the technology, propelled by COVID‑19 vaccine success, has surged from a $3.4 billion market in 2018 to roughly $40 billion today, with emerging applications in vaccines, cancer, and protein replacement therapies. Both topics underscore how innovative drug discovery is addressing global health threats while confronting funding and regulatory hurdles.
