• BoB@JPM: Nima Farzan, Latigo Biotherapeutics

  We love to hear from our listeners. Send us a message. In this final installment of our episodes recorded and filmed on-site at the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference, Nima Farzan, CEO of Latigo Biotherapeutics, shares his company's mission to change the pain management paradigm by way of novel, non-opioid medications that target NAV 1.8 sodium channels involved in pain signal transmission. It's a timely and important conversation that explores how these selective inhibitors could provide effective pain relief without the addiction risks and side effects of traditional opioids. In addition to the social and medical implications of Latigo's work, we discuss investor perceptions about pain management as a commercial opportunity and how Latigo is differentiating from traditional approaches by focusing on safety and tolerability rather than just efficacyThe 2025 BoB@JPM series is supported by Alston & Bird, whose national health care and life sciences practice has more than 100 attorneys actively involved and integrated across the full spectrum of legal disciplines including regulatory, compliance, public policy, transactional, corporate governance, securities, FDA, biotechnology, intellectual property, government investigations, and litigation practice areas.

• BoB@JPM: Kasper Roet, Ph.D., QurAlis

  We love to hear from our listeners. Send us a message. Dr. Kasper Roet's hands-on work at the Dutch Brain Bank informed his leadership at the biotech QurAlis, where three clinical programs targeting specific genetic mechanisms in ALS  are now underway. On this episode of the Business of Biotech, Life Science Leader's Ben Comer joins to co-host a conversation with Dr. Roet that goes deep on his company's genetic medicine approach to ALS, and even deeper into his opinions on, and growing influence over, the regulatory environment. Roet says that as the FDA's conservative approach to genetic medicines has pushed clinical trials overseas, he's been inspired to form and lead a consortium of 11-and-growing biotechs seeking regulatory reform through organized meetings and lobbying efforts.
