2023 Innovations in Regulatory Science Summit
Accelerating Healthcare Innovation Through a Regulatory Lens
Sunday, January 8, 2023 | 9 am to 4 pm Pacific Time
About This Event
The UCSF-Stanford Center of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (UCSF-Stanford CERSI) is pleased to present the fourth annual Innovations in Regulatory Science Summit, a gathering of leaders in the academia, industry, and regulatory sectors to discuss the role of regulatory science in medical product development.
The 2023 CERSI Innovations in Regulatory Science Summit will have a major focus on emerging issues in regulatory science including diversity in clinical trials, FDA/CMS decision making, and global drug development. In addition, we will be bringing back our exciting panel from 2022 featuring former FDA Commissioners discussing the latest issues facing the Agency.
The goal of the summit is to stimulate discussion across sectors and to critically consider lessons learned and scientific issues that need addressing to expeditiously and safely advance the development, approval, and monitoring of medical products.
Panel Discussions:
- Disparities in Clinical Trial Enrollment: What Will it Take to Close the Gap?
- Cross Agency Synergy to Accelerate Access to Safe and Effective Medical Products
- Building a Global Regulatory Vision for Product and Drug Development: Challenges and Opportunities
- FDA Chiefs Chat
Call for Posters:
The 2023 Innovations in Regulatory Science Summit Planning Committee invites abstract submissions to be presented at our in-person poster session in San Francisco, CA on Sunday, January 8, 2023. We invite all trainees and researchers to share their regulatory science research at our summit.

About UCSF-Stanford CERSI
The UCSF-Stanford Center of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (CERSI) is a joint effort among members of a world-class team of highly collaborative scientists at the University of California San Francisco, Stanford University, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The two academic institutions and the FDA work together on projects that promote regulatory science—including innovative research, education, and scientific exchange—in partnership with foundations and commercial entities interested in the development of FDA-approved medical products. The center collaborates, in particular, with the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and high-tech industries of the San Francisco Bay Area and the West Coast.
