FDA seeks a greater understanding of how patients define and perceive benefits and risks
related to medical products. The FDA Patient Network is hosting this one-day meeting to:
- review the drug and medical device regulatory processes;
- discuss where patient input is practical and most valuable; and,
- explore practical approaches to collecting meaningful patient input.
The meeting will include a series of presentations, exercises, and panel discussions to facilitate a
conversation with the patient community about these important topics.

Patients/caregivers and patient advocates should attend. Members of the general public are
also invited to attend, including health professional, academia, and industry representatives.
