Scientists, clinicians, and entrepreneurs cogitate on mechanisms, patients, and money, respectively. The tie that binds them all is regulatory affairs. In this “edutainment session,” Dr Tim Cote will share with scientists, clinicians, and entrepreneurs all they need to know to make FDA and EMA (and investors) smile. He will respond to questions relating to FDA and EMA orphan designations, the Pediatric Rare Disease Priority Review Voucher, Fast Track Designation, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, INTERACT, Pre-IND, and Type A, B, and C Meetings, IND submissions, all the way to NDA and BLA.
Contrary to popular opinion, regulatory affairs is more exciting than watching paint dry. It is the creative, strategic process by which dreams become tangible.
Join us in this highly engaging session!
