CBER is reannouncing the invitation for participation in its Regulatory Site Visit Training Program (RSVP). This training program is intended to give CBER regulatory review, compliance, and other relevant staff an opportunity to visit biologics facilities. These visits are intended to allow CBER staff to directly observe routine manufacturing practices and to give CBER staff a better understanding of the biologics industry, including its challenges and operations. Submit a written or electronic request for participation in this program by February 21, 2008. See the Federal Register Notice "Regulatory Site Visit Training Program" for further information.
