Arthur Miller, Esq. Bruce Bromley Professor of Law Harvard Law School Cambridge, MA "It is my pleasure to welcome attendees of the FDA Symposium to the campus of Harvard University. I hope that you will take advantage of this unique experience to study key Food and Drug Administration regulatory and compliance issues in this extraordinary academic environment."

Rarely have there been so many major changes and uncertainties with such far-reaching consequences to drug development, manufacturing, monitoring and marketing. And rarely has there been a greater need to bring together representatives and advisors from government and the world's leading drugmakers to share strategies for regaining consumer confidence in today's medicines.

The FDA Regulatory and Compliance Symposium-a unique three-day, high-level forum in one of the world's most famous academic settings-will help drugmakers prepare for the full impact of all the changes flowing from the FDA and Congress, while clarifying many of the uncertainties. The Symposium will also provide practical, state-of-the-art solutions to the challenges of eliminating or reducing risks throughout the product life-cycle-from the drug pipeline to manufacturing to patient delivery.

The Symposium takes place on the campus of Harvard University. Classes are held in Annenberg Hall of the Sanders Theatre Complex. Inspired by the great halls of Oxford and Cambridge Universities, this room is arguably the most impressive space at Harvard. Harvard University, the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States, was established in 1636. Today, Harvard has grown to become a great undergraduate and graduate research university.
