Today, the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) premieres its new I am BIO podcast season, which tells powerful stories of biotech breakthroughs, the people they help, and the global problems they solve.

“We want the American public to know they can trust science and biotechnology innovations, which are improving and saving lives,” said BIO’s CEO Rachel King. “By sharing our industry’s unique approaches to helping solve some of the world’s most pressing problems, we’re arming our listeners with first-hand insight into the exciting world of biotechnology.”

The season launches with a topic that impacts50 million people in the United States daily –chronic pain–and explores safe and effective treatments and how government policies could hinder new treatment developments.
