Everything pharmacologists, bioengineers, pharma engineers, students in
pharmacy and those working in the pharmaceutical industry need to know
about medical regulatory affairs. J. J. Tobin worked for many years
and in various capacities within Olympus diagnostica GmbH, a company
employing several 100 people who develop and manufacture in vitro
diagnostic reagents. Dr. Tobin therefore has extensive experience of
working within an FDA and European medical device regulatory framework.
