BREAKTHROUGH WEST + STAT SUMMIT

What you missed at last week's Breakthrough West

Last week in San Francisco, we gathered over 200 executives, investors, and leaders across science and medicine at STAT Breakthrough Summit West — and the conversations were urgent, candid, and bold.

Former FDA commissioner Robert Califf criticized political involvement in product approval and joined others in raising concerns about Americans' health under this administration.
Patient advocate Megan Bent shared her father's story with STAT's Casey Ross — offering a firsthand look at how AI-facilitated claim denials are affecting patients and families.
Reed Jobs, founder of Yosemite, sat down with STAT's Allison DeAngelis to discuss his goal to make cancer nonlethal — and warned Trump-era funding cuts could stall research.
Leaders from ASCO, Mass General Brigham, and the Parker Institute shared an optimistic vision for how AI could enhance patient care.
