5 Steps to Writing an Effective Presentation at an FDA Advisory Committee Meeting

There are few presentations as important as one delivered before an FDA Advisory Committee. This presentation is your company's primary opportunity to make its case about a drug or device approval to a range of audiences.  These include: the advisory committee, public, competition, media, advocacy groups, analysts and other influential people and groups. Unfortunately, you only have 60 to 90 minutes to summarize years of research and explain complex ideas. With so much at stake and so little time, your presentation needs to fully engage the advisory committee and clearly make your case. [Note that the author, Cindi DiBiasi, is a facilitator for both ELATE and ELUM events.]
