Pink Sheet reporter and editors try to answer some emerging questions about the US Food and Drug Administration now that President Donald Trump has taken office. They discuss the FDA’s acting leadership (:43), an ongoing communications freeze (7:45), along with the hiring freeze and travel ban (20:49). They also discuss the impact of several executive orders on the US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (26:23) and try to put the entire week’s events into perspective (33:40).

Editor’s Note: This episode was recorded prior to Sara Brenner being officially named acting FDA commissioner, but the discussion about other aspects of the presidential transition still is relevant.
