Ashif chats with Dr. Shridhar Narayanan, one of India's foremost pharmaceutical R&D scientists, and director at the Foundation for Neglected Disease Research (FNDR.IN). Shridhar shares his expertise on the COVID outbreak, but also lays out the drug discovery and development process. How the new drug development business model leaves out disease burdens on developing countries. Diseases like TB, dengue, and malaria. Finally, Shridhar gets into his personal journey from leading corporate R&D to a hospital in Mumbai administering drug cocktails to adult TB patients weighing only 35 kilos. And how this motivated him to set up the Foundation for Neglected Disease Research.
