and imports at the areas that present the greatest public health
risks.
Better Consumer Information
Make sure people have the accurate, science-based information
they need to make smarter health
decisions.
Postmarketing Safety
Greatly enhance our ability to identify and correct risks from medical products that emerge after they are marketed
Counterterrorism
Strengthen our capability to identify, prepare for, and respond to terrorist
threats
Effective Regulation/Strong Workforce
Recruit and retain a world-class professional workforce, build efficiency
in operations, and have the resources needed to accomplish our mission.
