from The Discovery Dialogues Podcast · host strands

In this Deep Dives Episode, Dr. Svetlana Mojsov - co-discoverer of GLP1 - recipient of the Lasker Award, the Tang Prize, and the 2025 Breakthrough Prize, graciously joins us in sharing her story.   Dr. Mojsov shows us the raw data where she predicted what would be the active form of GLP1, describes her years of work on the hormone, and tells us about the moment standing in front of a gamma counter when she knew that this was going to be a drug.   In our Discovery Dialogues podcast episodes, we have only used brief excerpts from conversations with scientists behind the most impactful discoveries in science, here we release the first in a series of full conversations in the  Deep Dives series.
