Science Will Win

Pfizer trusted me with its flagship podcast about the science behind new medicines. I co-hosted Season 5 with NASA astrophysicist Dr. Ronald Gamble, and I hosted Season 6, a season on cancer with video conversations I led.

The brief

Pfizer wanted the science behind new medicines, from vaccines to cancer care, explained for people outside the lab.

My role

I co-hosted Season 5, hosted Season 6, and led the show's first full-length video conversations with patients and researchers.

The outcome

Season 5 won a Gold W3 Award. The four Season 6 video conversations passed 1 million views on YouTube.

Two seasons

  1. Season 5

    Co-host with Dr. Ronald Gamble · Fall 2025 · 4 episodes

    Four episodes on medicine people rarely notice, covering conjugate vaccines, multispecific antibodies, molecular glues, and antibody-drug conjugates. Ronald and I took turns leading, and I led the first and third. I traced each breakthrough back through decades of earlier science and talked with patients and the researchers behind the work.
