Today on BiotechTV, I published a behind-the-scenes tour of the base editing company Beam Therapeutics from its Kendall Sqaure (Cambridge, MA) headquarters.

This video encapsulates everything I’m trying to deliver to viewers through BiotechTV:

1) Education about an emerging area of science from true experts, in their own words.

2) An authentic, insider’s view of what cutting-edge biotech companies look like.

3) Personalizing and highlighting the bright people behind this industry.

Thanks John Evans and Pino Ciaramella for showing me around.

Here’s a link to the full video

Comments and suggestions about story ideas or improvements to BiotechTV are always welcome. Thanks for watching!

Very cool to have an opportunity to interview Albert Bourla at Pfizer’s new headquarters in Hudson Yards NYC.

Doing some exploring in Boston today and came across this indiscreet but cool site on the campus of Northeastern University. It’s a statue of Cy Young and marks the location of the pitching mound and home plate of the first ever World Series.

Great to be in Boston for the summer and be inspired by founders of our country, presidents, and other great Americans.

South Florida biotech people save the date: Wednesday, March 29th. 6:00PM to 9:00PM. Downtown Miami (exact location to be updated).

A Nucleate networking event to talk biotech and opportunities in Florida and beyond.

Whenever I have a question about CMC issues, I go straight to Anthony Davies for the answer. Here's some straight talk on cell and gene therapy COGS, improving yields, and other ways he's working to bring down costs so therapies can be used for broader indications. #ATW23

It's a privilege to do this for a third year now with Bruce Levine. We catch up on the latest advances in cell therapy including armored CARs, in-vivo editing, cell Tx for non-oncology indications, and more. #ATW23

Gene therapy expert Nicole Paulk discusses the science of AAV, where it is headed, programs in the pipeline, and how viral vector shortages are causing delays and backlog for clinical trials. What a wealth of info, must watch! #ATW23

Have you wondered how CAR-T and gene Tx is shipped all over the world? Mark Sawicki from the leading logistics company, Cryoport Systems, demonstrates the equipment for me. He even sees drones doing this in the future. Medicine is no longer a pill in a bottle. #ATW23

What a morning at The U touring the football facilities with Mike Rumph.

With the Legend, Arie Belldegrun. Talking navigating tough times, including making difficult business decisions, allogeneic cell therapy, and more. When Arie talks, I listen.

There's nobody better to talk with about where IO science is headed than the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy's John Connolly. He describes PICI's business model, and some favorite areas of science: armored CARs, cytokines, mRNA, oncolytic viruses, and more. #JPM23
