Regulatory Policy Lead

Regulators worldwide are developing various pathways to support speeding up drug development and accelerating access to medicines. There are new initiatives arising across the globe, including also development of new WHO guidance and recommendations. Reliance and work-sharing among regulators is heavily encouraged, allowing at the same time their resources and efforts to focus on other important areas in public health that cannot be streamlined.
This session will explore recent developments in the global regulatory landscape, emphasizing on the need for establishing appropriate regulatory pathways for accelerating access to innovation, as well as provide insights into specific region’s/countries’ experiences.
