Preview: In his five decades at FDA, Robert “Bob” Temple helped revolutionize the ways medical products are developed and regulated. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, Washington Editor Steve Usdin reflects on the legacy of Temple.

Usdin also discusses the opportunities and threats for the agency under Trump 2.0.BioCentury's editors also discuss China’s academic innovation, arguing that a wave of new target biology is now coming from Chinese university labs and the underwhelming results from CagriSema’s latest readout.
