Welcome -

We are pleased to provide you with the Fall edition of the Global Food, Drugs, Medical Devices and Cosmetics newsletter. This newsletter provides updates on important issues and developments across these 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 that address important industry and regulatory trends and their correlation with the challenges faced by economic operators on a daily basis. This edition covers such diverse topics as regulatory developments in the fields of labelling, clinical trials and the use of nanomaterials in consumer products, and brand specific health claims on food products.

K&L Gates’ global platform allows our team to offer domestic, international and multinational companies 24/7 availability and a unique position from which to advise on research, approval, registration, import, export and recall matters globally. We are also closely integrated with our Life Sciences and Global Government Solutions® practices and related practices in the corporate, antitrust, healthcare, intellectual property, product liability and policy areas so can offer multidisciplinary support throughout the product life cycle. We hope you find this Fall edition to be interesting and informative.
