BioSpace Vice President Chantal Dresner and Angela Gabriel, content manager, life sciences careers, cover what happened in the biopharma job market during the third quarter. They discuss encouraging signs for those looking for their next opportunity, such as improved job postings live on the BioSpace website and a dramatic drop in layoffs. 
Other topics include signs of industry health, news about job opportunities and advice for the Q4 job hunt.

In this episode of Denatured, sponsored by Cytiva, Jennifer Smith-Parker speaks to Nicolas Pivet, VP & GM, Manufacturing & Digital Solutions at Cytiva. In this episode, we discuss how biopharma has long invested in more data and visibility, yet many programs still face delays and scale-up surprises. The real challenge isn’t information overload—it’s building confidence in the decisions that steer scientific progress from development through commercialization.

This episode is presented in partnership with Cytiva.

Johnson & Johnson beat analyst expectations in the third quarter but left Wall Street wanting more; BMS dominated the news cycle on Monday with a Phase 3 win validating its $4.1 billion RayzeBio buy and mixed data in a late-stage pulmonary fibrosis trial; Revolution Medicines’ newly approved pancreatic cancer drug works better for patients with certain mutations; and Caribou Biosciences may be on its way out.

In this episode of Denatured, you’ll hear from Jennifer McMahon, partner at Seroba and Joey Mason, venture partner at Claret Capital. We dig into how venture debt buys time when equity can’t — and how Europe’s funding gaps, tranching habits and slower urgency shape who uses it well.

New data for Genmab and AbbVie’s bispecific antibody Epkinly wowed analysts and could set the partners up for an expanded approval in diffuse large B cell lymphoma; deals have flowed steadily this week, including Novartis’ nearly $8 billion bet on mRNA drugs with China’s Abogen Biosciences; and could Sarepta Therapeutics turn things around from last year’s annus horribilis?
