This week on the podcast, we’re speaking with the executive director of the Biologics and Biosimilars Collective Intelligence Consortium (BBCIC), Cate Lockhart, PharmD, PhD, about the acceptance process for biosimilars in the United States, what BBCIC is doing to help the market develop, and how the new approval pathway for biologics will affect the pace at which biosimilars come to market.
