Ep. 97 – From NIH to Industry: Zerhouni Warns Policy & Rhetoric Threaten U.S. Science

Elias Zerhouni personifies the American dream. He arrived in the U.S. from Algeria as a young man with a couple of hundred dollars in his pocket. Talent, ambition and hard work propelled him into a successful academic career. In 2002, he was nominated and confirmed as NIH director, and later he served in senior positions in the biopharma industry. That trajectory “would be almost impossible” today, he told BioCentury Washington Editor Steve Usdin on The BioCentury Show. Anti-immigration policies, underfunding of basic research, and attacks on philanthropy have made the U.S. an unattractive destination for anyone hoping to follow his path, Zerhouni said. Zerhouni also discussed reasons for optimism about life sciences in the U.S., the difficulty of fixing drug pricing, and his time at Sanofi.
