Episode 34: Pain Management Science & Biotech Innovation with Key Opinion Leader James Zadina

In this compelling episode of BIO from the BAYOU, we explore groundbreaking developments in the field of pain management with James Zadina, PhD, a leading expert from Tulane University. Amidst the pressing opioid crisis, Zadina introduces us to “Tuleva”—a revolutionary peptide that promises to change the way we address chronic pain, sidestepping the notorious side effects associated with traditional opioids. Hosted by Elaine Hamm, PhD, this episode doesn't only shine a light on Tuleva's scientific significance but also opens up discussions about the potential of collaboration in furthering this research. Zadina walks us through the intricate mechanisms of how Tuleva works and the hopeful path it paves for those suffering from chronic pain. Links: Connect with James Zadina, PhD.
