On May 31st at 0800 we will have a top executive of a provider of a human like “chat” between doctor’s office and patient as an example of what their service does. Input for the session will be about a “first” app where the platform’s AI performs a dialog with the practice’ client. Many other kinds of dialogs can be provided for communications between the doctor, patient, and staff.
1:30 pm: Conducting Effective FDA Pre-Sub Meetings: Best Practices to Avoid Timely & Costly Mistakes
1:30 pm – 3:00 pm June 6, 2024
Ineffective communication with the FDA often causes costly delays for medical device companies. Manufacturers might mistakenly assume they’ve chosen the right pathway to market, completed sufficient testing, or met the necessary clinical trial requirements, only to find out later that the FDA disagrees.
These errors lead to delays and increased costs, but they are avoidable. The FDA’s pre-submission (pre-sub) program allows manufacturers to discuss devices under development, ensuring effective communication.
Join us for an informative webinar where you will learn best practices to avoid timely, costly mistakes and creative ways to use the pre-sub program to your advantage!
ACC Bioscience Incubator Director, Nancy Lyon, will participate in a post-screening discussion of the film ‘Teknolust’ featuring Tilda Swinton on June 6th at 7:15p. The discussion will only be loosely about the film and more an open discussion on the state of AI in science and the capabilities we now have with the progress of DNA technologies.
All day: A Biocompatibility of Medical Devices – 2 Day Course Certification
All day June 10, 2024 – June 13, 2024
This course is structured to tackle each of these challenges and provide hands-on experiential learning. It is designed for those who require a working knowledge of biocompatibility or are looking to update and sharpen their skills. Participants can expect to learn how to use standards to establish a biological safety evaluation plan, as well as how to document and implement their plan. Use of material/chemical characterization and risk assessment will be highlighted, as will real-world exercises to practice evaluating biological risk.
