Join the Science Alliance for the fifth in this National Academies of Science series on Tuesday, April 25, 2022, from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM ET. The career path discussion on regulatory affairs will be followed by a virtual networking opportunity with the panelists.

Almost all scientific innovations related to human health are subject to state, federal or international regulation. How is a certain product deemed safe for human use and before it is made available for patients or consumers at large? These recommendations are made by regulatory affairs professionals.

The rise in diagnostics, drugs, therapeutics, vaccines, and medical technologies means a greater need for individuals who need to work in the intersection of government and healthcare industry. In this webinar, we will learn the roles played by a regulatory affairs professional and the skills a graduate or postdoctoral fellow needs to be successful in this field.

Attending this panel you will hear about:

• Opportunities for regulatory affairs professionals and how to transition into this type of role
• The “side-hustles”  you can pursue to gain more knowledge about regulatory affairs career options
• The challenges to consider when considering a position in this field

 The event will be followed by a virtual networking opportunity with the panelists at 6:30 PM.

If you have specific questions you would like the panelists to address during the discussion – please email siyer@nyas.org and he will incorporate them into this conversation.
