Dr. Vinay Prasad will make sure new drugs actually work before the Food and Drug Administration approves them. The industry won't like that change. Patients will.

This is a YUGE move.
I know Prasad. He is deeply thoughtful about the value and cost of new medicines. He understands the games Big Pharma plays to win approvals for expensive new drugs…
