Robert B. Nicholas was quoted on April 14 by the National Law Journal in an article regarding the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's plan to post employees in the People's Republic of China. The FDA announced plans to post eight full-time, permanent FDA employees in China within the next 18 months, plus five local Chinese nationals to work with FDA staff. "A shift in China's regulatory regime for drugs, medical devices and foods isn't going to happen overnight, but its creation and development will create opportunities for lawyers working with U.S. and Chinese manufactures in China for many years to come," said Mr. Nicholas. "It takes knowledge, experience and training to get people to understand the consequences of how they prepare documents for contracts and for submission to various regulatory agencies," Mr. Nicholas added.
