Ep. 3: Physician Heal Thyself, with Allogene’s Arie Belldegrun

Mike speaks with Arie Belldegrun, an oncologist and businessman who has built several biopharmaceutical companies over the past three decades. Both Belldegrun and his wife recently recovered from their positive diagnoses of COVID-19, though it presented very differently in each of their cases.

Bringing together his years of research and personal experience with the virus, Belledgrun discusses the role the immune system plays in both protecting the body from and preparing it to fight against the virus, as well as how we can apply our learnings from cancer and other clinical research in our approach to COVID-19.
