FDA MedWatch alerts posted to IRB blog
As a notification service to the Vanderbilt community, the IRB has begun posting MedWatch Alerts issued by the FDA to our blog. Within the postings you will find detailed information about each alert, as well as a direct link to FDA's posting and website so that you have the tools available if any additional action is needed due to a product you may be working with as part of your research or patient care. As always, please feel free to contact us if you have any questions if an alert affects your study(ies).
