Food and Drug Administration Pediatric Medical Devices Workshop; 
Notice of Workshop

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Office of Orphan Products 
Development is announcing the following workshop: FDA Pediatric Medical 
Devices Workshop. This meeting is intended to focus on challenges in 
pediatric device development--namely, business planning and funding 
concerns; and how sponsors can most effectively interact with the FDA. 
The goal of this meeting is to engage and educate pediatric innovators 
and device industry sponsors.
    This educational meeting will consist of live presentations 
provided by FDA experts from various Centers and Offices, as well as 
from outside experts. The interactive meeting will also include a 
``mock'' FDA pre-submission meeting for a ``mock'' pediatric medical 
device, to illustrate how such encounters may transpire. In addition, 
attendees will have an opportunity during lunch to engage with 
Pediatric Device Consortia Grant Program leaders. The meeting will be 
recorded for subsequent posting on the FDA Web site.
    Date and Time: The meeting will be held on September 24, 2012, from 
8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
    Location: FDA White Oak Campus, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 31 
Conference Center, the Great Room (rm. 1503), Silver Spring, MD 20993-
