3. FDA policymaking is not likely to improve the regulatory environment anytime soon
The new Administration will not help things
I don’t say that as a Democrat or Republican. I say that as an optimist. I consider myself optimistic, because, in my 35 years of observing FDA, I don’t believe that the agency is terribly political. And that ought to be a comfort.
We really shouldn’t want a science-based regulator to be political, drifting significantly with political currents. We should want science to carry the day. And largely it does. New administrations, once they get up and running, poke and prod around the edges, but the rank-and-file at FDA generally continue to do what they always do.
