Topic: FDA Latest Trends
Speaker: Virginia L. Corbin, Manager, Corporate Compliance Marketing, Waters Corporation
Location: Pharmatek Laboratories, Inc.

Presentation Summary

Are you ready for the FDA’s new tougher focus on Part 11? In May 2010, the FDA announced the “tag along” inspections for Part 11. This was done because of the numerous problems with data integrity, and the fact that the FDA does not fully trust what the pharmaceutical industry is saying about the impact of Part 11. We will look at the FDA’s core expectations and what they will be looking for. Fore warned is fore armed.
