How will the midterm results affect drug pricing policy? What is the fate of the Food and Drug Administration? And why are women traveling to fertility clinics abroad? On this week's episode of “The Readout LOUD,” STAT's biotech podcast, we bring on our Washington correspondent Daniel Payne to chat about the massive midterm victory for Democrats and what it means for health and medicine. We also bring on our colleague Megan Molteni to discuss her investigation into a network of clinics that have advertised fertility success with a questionable and expensive genetic procedure.
