Want to join an FDA advisory committee?

Have you ever wanted to join the FDA advisory committee? Earlier this week, we heard that "FDA launches advisory committee membership nomination portal." Here are some of those details:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today launched the advisory committee membership nomination portal, an online, interactive system that allows interested individuals to submit nominations for membership to any of the agency’s 33 advisory committees.

The portal will enable nominees to submit their application for membership on an advisory committee from the FDA’s website, creating a paperless, streamlined process that will enable the agency to accept, evaluate, and ultimately nominate qualified individuals for membership in a timely fashion.

“The portal allows applicants to complete their entire application online,” said Jill Hartzler Warner, J.D., acting associate commissioner of the FDA’s Office of Special Medical Programs. “Applicants will experience an interactive, step-by-step process that eliminates confusion and accelerates the timeframe for submitting and processing an application.”

You won't want to miss the Kenexa World Conference at Connect 2014

No matter what you do in life, it should energize you. It should fulfill you, engage you and give you purpose each day. Your work should inspire you and fill you with a sense of pride.

Connect 2014 offers workstreams specific to HR, IT and Marketing/Customer Service that provide valuable insight and thought leadership for each group. Because it’s no longer just about talent, technology or commerce, it’s about connecting all three together to Energize Life’s Work.
