Dear Reader :

This month’s newsletter, co-developed by the IPA and Citeline, covers the key talking points following US President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address where he took a tough stance against pharma.

President Biden signalled his desire to expand on the Inflation Reduction Act and end the tax breaks for big pharma, though some of that is being seen as political rhetoric in an election year. The president also signed an executive order directing federal funding for research into a range of women’s health topics.

There’s also a piece on AstraZeneca’s $2bn deal to snap up radiopharmaceuticals developer Fusion Pharmaceuticals.
