The Division of Drug Information (DDI)- serving the public by providing information on human drug products and drug product regulation by FDA.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) will hold a public meeting that will provide an overview of the current status of the regulatory science initiatives for generic drugs and will provide an opportunity for public input on research priorities in these topic areas.

FDA will take the information it obtains from the public meeting into account in developing the fiscal year (FY) 2017 Regulatory Science Plan.
