Who was that guy? The one in the video that seemed so outrageous [a deal-breaker?…, a window…]. And where was that meeting? What was it about?

Section Head Legal – Biologics Strategic Development, Abbvie
 Neal Parker is a U.S. lawyer specializing in drug and biologic regulatory issues. He began his career more than 20 years ago representing international and domestic clients in matters subject to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulation. In 1994, he left private practice to join the FDA, where he served as a senior lawyer in the agency’s Office of the Chief Counsel providing advice to the FDA Commissioner and Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) Director on novel and emerging issues of FDA law such as biologics, dietary supplements and combination products. At FDA, Neal handled FDA enforcement matters, rulemaking and guidance issues, and also litigated on behalf of the FDA numerous defensive, seizure, and injunctive enforcement actions involving unapproved drugs, generic drugs, dietary supplements, adulterated and otherwise violative medical devices, and biologic products. In 2001, Neal left FDA and joined Abbott laboratories, where he worked on world-wide biopharmaceutical and medical device legal regulatory issues. |

“At FDA, Neal handled FDA enforcement matters, rulemaking and guidance issues, and also litigated on behalf of the FDA….”
That explains why the FDA has been so ineffective in protecting public safety.
Altostrata, I was just going to write that..
It’s called the Revolving Door, and it spins faster and more profitably at the FDA than anyplace in government, except maybe the Pentagon. Didn’t realize Mr. Parker had been through it, twice. It figures.
That stupid old pamphlet is coming off the shelf again: the modern State is just a committee for managing the common affairs of the entire bourgeoisie … Karl, why do you have to be RIGHT all the time?
