It’s been almost a year since we’ve been introduced to COVID-19 and since that day we’ve all been asking ourselves the same thing: When and how does this pandemic end? One possible solution is the discovery of therapeutic antibodies for the novel coronavirus and one startup stands out in the race to find them: Distributed Bio.
In this episode the co-founder and CEO, Dr. Jacob Glanville takes us on a mission to end this and all future pandemics. From his experiences growing up in Guatemala to becoming a champion for radical transparency in biotech, Jake shares with us his journey in discovering broad-spectrum anti-COVID antibodies and his inspiring mission to make medicine affordable worldwide.
