Episode description

Carolyn Jasik, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Omada Health, joins Vijay Pande, founding partner of a16z Bio + Health.

As Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound capture the healthcare spotlight, we’ve developed a series of episodes that go beyond the headlines and take you into conversations with the specialists. 

Our first guest is Carolyn Jasik, Chief Medical Officer at Omada Health. She gives us an overview of the science of satiety, the perspective from obesity-focused physicians, and the sometimes surprising lifestyle implications for patients on these medicines.

This series provides insight into what anti-obesity medicines are, where they’re going, and the challenges that have to be overcome along the way.
