Program Description:
You never know who could be knocking. As clinical researchers we tend to live in fear that it is the FDA. But this is not the way to live our professional lives. So, the MN Chapter has decided to provide you with direct from the source information about what to expect is the FDA does come knocking. Then we will provide you some awesome examples of what other did (and you shouldn’t), followed by how to really get your organization prepared. It should be a great day of learning and interactive conversations.
