The $42 Billion Breakthrough That Took 40 Years to Arrive (Ad)

GLP-1, the compound behind Eli Lilly's Mounjaro, was discovered more than 40 years ago. It took four decades for that science to become a drug that generated 65 billion dollars in revenue last year and sent Eli Lilly shares up 323 percent since approval. One little known Midwestern company is working to shorten that timeline. It uses advanced technology to help biotech startups bring new treatments to market faster.tc pixel
