Podcasts have become a critical communication channel for the life sciences industry.
Here are our personal recommendations for the top 7 pharma and biotech podcasts that we think are worth your time.
Podcasts are typically consumed while commuting or travelling, making them a totally different medium for busy business people to learn and stay up-to-date without having to be permanently glued to a screen.
In the United States 44% of senior-level decision makers now “make a concerted effort to listen to podcasts” (Source: Edison’s Infinite Dial report), with industry surveys placing Podcasts at equal importance to email newsletters or webinars.
