Highlighting Issues and Developments across the Globe in the Food, Drugs, Medical Devices and Cosmetics Industries
Welcome
We are pleased to provide you with the Spring edition of the Global Food, Drugs, Medical Devices and Cosmetics newsletter. As stated in our inaugural issue, this newsletter provides updates on important issues and developments across the food, drug, medical device and cosmetic industries. Because our experience spans the United States, Europe, China, Australia and Asia, we are able to bring a unique, global perspective to these issues.
This edition of the newsletter focuses on a wide range of topics including GMO free labeling in the EU; EU regulation of nanomaterials in food, cosmetics and medical devices; differentiating beverages from liquid dietary supplements in the United States; China's implementation of its new food safety laws; Australia's prohibition on genetically modified foods; and Japan's recently enacted laws concerning medical devices, device software and regenerative medicine. In addition, our featured articles seek to provide a global perspective on the regulation of medical food.
Our experience on topics that matter most to the food, drug, medical device and cosmetic industries is both broad and deep. We invite you to become more familiar with the practice by visiting our web page where you will find a wealth of knowledge and experience.
