Forum Description:

Join a lively discussion amongst corporate counsel and private practice legal and regulatory professionals on regulatory developments impacting the food, drug, and medical device industries. The FDA Forum is this Section’s longest running annual event, valued by members for offering an insider’s perspective on thorny regulatory issues.

Returning this year as our keynote speaker is Susan Alpert, Ph.D., M.D., who draws valuable insight from her experience at the FDA, where she held a variety of management positions in the Centers dealing with drugs, devices and radiological health, and foods, as well as her industry expertise developed in executive positions at Medtronic, Inc., and C.R. Bard, Inc. Following Dr. Alpert’s presentation are panel discussions among in-house and outside counsel specializing in food law and drug and device law. We will close the Forum with a social and networking event with light refreshments.
