Pediatric Science and Research Activities

To help advance the science and improve our understanding of how best to develop safe and effective products for children, the FDA conducts regulatory science research projects and publishes manuscripts describing scientific advances. The FDA also helps by creating opportunities and public forums for stakeholders to meet to discuss challenging scientific issues related to pediatric product development and pediatric regulatory science. 

Advancing the Development of Pediatric Therapeutics (ADEPT) Workshops

Each year, the FDA hosts an ADEPT workshop to discuss ways to advance development of medicines for children.
