Episode Description: We reflect on our first year of podcasting and share some of the things we learned, enjoyed, and appreciated about biotech. We discuss some of the themes and topics that emerged from our conversations with biotech leaders, such as the complexity and diversity of biology, the challenges and opportunities of scaling bioproduction, and the importance of radical thinking and innovation. We also highlight some of our favorite episodes and guests, and thank our listeners for their support and feedback. Join us as we celebrate one year of growing everything!
