Good morning, everyone, and how are you today? We are doing just fine, thank you, despite the frenzied atmosphere here at the biopharma Woodstock. The trick is to keep moving and quaff repeated cups of stimulation. Perhaps you relate. In any event, here are some tidbits to keep you going. Hope your day is successful and drop us a line if you hear anything interesting …
The U.S. Senate Finance Committee will hold a hearing on Tuesday morning at 10 a.m. ET to decide whether to endorse Alex Azar, a former Eli Lilly (LLY) executive, as the next secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. His nomination has cheered drug makers, but angered industry critics for various reasons, including steep price hikes on insulin that he oversaw while working at Lilly.
One word of advice for the Pharmalot Aquarians at Biopharma Woodstock: “Stay away from the brown acid.”
Thanks
Chip Moncke
