Rockville-on-Thames

by Peter Pitts

Last week I gave a brief presentation to folks at the MHRA on the current state of affairs at the FDA. It was a Chatham House rules affair, so I don't want to reveal any confidences -- but the first question I was asked is worth sharing,

"How can the FDA earn back its reputation?"

(Nothing like a softball question from Our Regulatory Cousins.)

Without going into too much detail here, suffice it to say that what followed was a rather robust conversation about the best ways to stand up for what's right in light of the unsavory tactics of many on our side of the pond.

There is indeed a "special friendship" between FDA and MHRA -- and we must all find ways to strengthen these important bonds of regulatory solidarity.
