The goal of this competition is to promote student interest in the field of regulatory science, which strives to develop new tools, standards, and approaches to assess the safety, efficacy, quality, and performance of products regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).<\/p>\n<p>One of the highlights for the competition\u2019s winners is the opportunity to visit the FDA later in the semester to present their award-winning regulatory science ideas to staff from across the agency. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, an in-person visit to the FDA was not possible for this year\u2019s winning teams: Brain Alliance, Just (Insul)in Case, and RidRx.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, to recognize the hard work and time that our winning teams put into their proposals, the FDA\u2019s Office of Regulatory Science and Innovation arranged a \u201cvirtual visit.\u201d For the virtual visit, the winning teams from the University of Maryland and the University of Rochester (which hosts a separate local event on its campus) recorded their presentations, which were later viewed by staff at the FDA.
