A New Biotech Series for 2025

BIO and BBC StoryWorks are launching a new series in 2025, spotlighting biotech breakthroughs in women’s health, innovation in diagnostics and treatments, climate resilience, and public health. BIO members can submit stories for consideration, with selected films featured across BBC.com and BIO platforms. Learn more and submit your story below.

Building on the success of the campaign to date, BIO is announcing a new series produced for us by BBC StoryWorks and launching in 2025. In this new iteration, the series will build on the storytelling expertise developed in the previous series to explore biotechnology in greater depth, combined with a campaign poised to reach an even bigger audience and further generate evidence-based understanding of the tangible impact of cutting-edge science.

We are encouraging the BIO network to submit their stories for potential inclusion in the series in a brand film to be produced for them by BBC StoryWorks, which will require a fee. Films will be distributed across the BBC.com online platforms, social media, BIO’s platforms and through partner channels. Guiding story selection for this project is the following key thematic areas.

Women’s Health: beyond the traditional scope of women’s health, how is biotechnology generating gender equality in all facets of healthcare?
Uncommon Innovation: how are advancements in diagnostics, drug discovery and treatment providing transformative breakthroughs in previously untreatable diseases?
Building Resilience: what is the role of biotechnology in responding to climate-induced emergencies and increasing global resilience?
A Healthier Tomorrow: what are the most fundamental threats to public health and what is the role of biotechnology in solving them?
