Fractals: Life Science Conversations

Beyond Pain Management: A One Medicine Approach to Osteoarthritis with Guests Graham Lumsden and Jonathan Larkin

Episode Notes

What happens when human health, animal health, and entrepreneurial drug development intersect?

In this episode of Fractals: Life Science Conversations, Bracken CEO Colin Miller is joined by Senior Partners Graham Lumsden, BVM&S, Dip.M., MRCVS, and Jonathan Larkin, PhD, to discuss osteoarthritis innovation, One Medicine, and the collaborative pathways that can move novel therapies forward.

Together, they discuss:

• Why osteoarthritis remains a major unmet need in both human and animal health
• How disease-modifying approaches could shift treatment beyond pain management
• The promise of bispecific antibody development in addressing both pain and cartilage degeneration
• How animal health studies can help inform human development programs, and vice versa
• Why human expertise, networks, and scientific judgment remain essential in the age of AI
