“Since the founding of MDIC, the Consortium has benefited from an engaged board of senior leaders that share our vision of protecting and promoting public health. We are pleased to have the momentum continue under Mike Minogue’s leadership as chairman. As a founding Board member, Mike helped shape our vision and recruit new members,” said Jeffrey Shuren, M.D., director of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health and founding MDIC Board of Directors executive committee member. “Technology continues to advance at an unprecedented rate. MDIC’s success in bringing the best minds throughout the ecosystem together in the pre-competitive space to address our most challenging regulatory science questions can help us realize our vision of U.S. patients having access to important new technologies first in the world.”
“It is a privilege to serve as chairman of MDIC,” said Michael Minogue, chairman/CEO of Abiomed. “Collaboration has always been a key to medical technology innovation. When MDIC was formed, our vision was to utilize collaborative communication and resources to accelerate innovation with regulatory science. I would like to acknowledge the leadership and vision of our founding chairman of the Board of Directors, Bill Hawkins. Under Bill’s tenure, MDIC has grown to over 50 members and delivered innovative tools supporting the science of patient preference and advanced computational modeling in clinical trials.”
