Darwin's Medicine

About Darwin's Medicine

The Darwin’s Medicine podcast is for strategists in the biomedical industry but will interest anyone who works in medtech, pharma and related sectors. The biomedical industry is a complex adaptive system. Try to explain it by simple models or extrapolation and you soon find that nothing in this, the world’s most important industry, makes sense. Darwinian evolution explains such systems. In this podcast, Professor Brian D Smith complements his critically acclaimed book of the same name to give insights into how we can shape the evolution of the industry and its business models.
