Recently on the Dynamist, Evan Swarztrauber interviewed Katie Meyer, Vice President of Public Affairs for Novocure to talk about bottlenecks in medical device innovation. On average, it takes Medicare 4.5 years to approve coverage for an FDA-approved medical device—Evan and Katie discuss the ramifications of this kind of delay, and what can be done about it.

This week on The Dynamist, Adam Candeub (Center for Renewing America) and Robert Corn-Revere (Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression) join Evan Swarztrauber to debate Texas’s age verification law for adult websites, soon to be heard by the Supreme Court. What does Free Speech Coalition v. Paxton mean for the future of online regulation? We explore whether this law protects kids or undermines digital freedom, the balance between safety and free speech, and what SCOTUS’s decision could mean for tech policy at the state and federal levels. Tune in for a deep dive into one of the most important cases shaping the internet’s future: https://lnkd.in/geqKugU8

This week on The Dynamist, Stanford University’s Marietje Schaake joins Evan Swarztrauber and Luke Hogg to explore the complex relationships between Big Tech and government. How have tech giants grown to rival nations in economic might, and what challenges does this pose for governance? We dive into the debate on regulating these digital behemoths and examine whether stricter policies could stifle innovation. Tune in for a discussion on balancing technological progress with democratic values in the age of AI: https://lnkd.in/enEuBz-S
