SFL’s Head of Supply Chain Barbara Polek is presenting at the Medtech & Pharma Platform Virtual Annual Conference (22-23 October 2020, online). Barbara’s presentation “Promoting patient safety through new supply chain controls under the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and the Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD)” will be on October 23, 11:00 am CEST (Session 5 on Patient/user needs in development of combined products). Barbara is an expert in supply chains for pharmaceutical and medical device products, and her talk will be of particular significance considering the increased supply during the current pandemic of products from new sources of difficult-to-verify quality, and compliance with relevant regulations. Barbara will also be part of the session’s discussion panel alongside an expert patient speaker, and a human factors and usability design expert, where participants can provide their perspectives and have their questions answered.
