Each month, The FDA Group’s Insider Newsletter delivers three regulatory and compliance news analyzed by former FDA staff and experienced life science consultants working in the FDA-regulated industries.

Each newsletter contains a subscriber-only video of the expert contributor’s analysis with a transcript of the video and links to relevant articles and resources on the web. Subscribers get actionable insights they won't find elsewhere.

 

Why we're launching a newsletter—and why you'll find it valuable.

There are a handful of free and paid regulatory intelligence services that report on new regulations, FDA guidances, enforcement actions, etc.

Many of these services do a decent job of putting need-to-know industry news in front of you, but few—if any—actually provide the expert analysis and perspectives that help you understand what you need to do in light of, say, new a guidance being issued. Even fewer go so far to break down warning letters and pick out the key lessons from them.

It’s up to you to digest the information, determine the impact on your organization, and plan accordingly. That takes time and attention that we suspect you could better invest elsewhere.

Our newsletter fills this gap.

Once a month, we gather regulatory and compliance happenings and put them to a former FDA official or experienced consultant with the appropriate background to analyze that news and distill it into actionable takeaways for RA, QA, and Clinical teams.

They record their analysis, and we send it to you. It's that simple.

We hope it will save you time hunting for that news and understanding what you need to do as a result of it—all through the lens of someone with deep industry or agency experience. We cover new regulatory initiatives, dig into new guidances, pull out key themes of warning letters, and more.

Watch our "pilot" edition and get a sense of what to expect each month. We've gathered a team of former FDA professionals and industry consultants as our expert contributors.

Subscribers will get exclusive access to videos like this every month—covering topics across the pharma, device, and biologics industries.

Our pilot features contributor Larry Stevens, RAC, a life science consultant who has held almost every field position within FDA during his 21-year career with the agency.

Yes, of course. Substack makes it very easy to cancel any paid subscription. Once you cancel your subscription, it will terminate at the end of the billing period and you will not be charged again.

What sorts of content can I expect to receive?

We plan to cover news and topics relevant to RA/QA/Clinical professionals working in FDA-regulated industries. That includes new regulatory initiatives from FDA and other regulatory bodies, guidance document analyses, enforcement action breakdowns, and more. We'll be focusing on the pharmaceutical, medical device, and biologic industries in particular. 

How will this be different from other industry intelligence services?

The Insider Newsletter will be unique in a few ways:

  • Format: The format of this newsletter will be a mix of video and text. Our contributors aren't writing articles; they're recording themselves providing live analysis—much like they would with a client they may be working with in the field. We know subscribers may want to document the insights given in these videos, so we're including a transcript with each of them, as well as links to supplementary materials.
  • Substance: Unlike other regulatory intelligence services, our roster of contributors aren't "freelance" experts. They're trusted consultants from our own network—people we call on to tackle challenging projects with our clients. We'll bring a whole new level of subject matter expertise than you might be used to if you subscribe to other services.
  • Focus: We won't be covering day-to-day product approval news you can find in hundreds of places. We're focusing only on RA/QA/Clinical topics that directly impact our audience. These insights will be useful at a very practical level.
