“What I really want to accomplish, and think we’ve built into our program, is this outreach we’re building with the [additive manufacturing] industry. To make sure we can foster innovation in a way that is beneficial for everybody, and that the FDA is helping to advance things rather than reacting.” Case in point: the FDA and additive manufacturers must work together and share information during this time to get the job done.
