Several Nano-Tera projects are tackling medical issues and may need to address medical regulations. As a researcher, it is difficult to know which regulations apply, at what time in the project and how to address them.
As a consequence, Nano-Tera is organizing an information day about these important issues. It will present an overview of the medical regulations (laws, CE Marking, FDA approval, GMP.s, GLP.s, Pre-Clinical Testing, Clinical Evaluation.), notifying bodies and competent authorities (Swissmedic, ethical committees, FDA, TÜV, etc.). It will also help in classifying the research activity according to applicable regulations (well-being, diagnostics, treatment, implants, etc.), and explaining at what time in the project the regulations apply, and how to address them.
