FDA Basics: Kathleen Uhl, MD on the FDA's Office of Women's Health

Kathleen Uhl is the director of the Office of Women's Health. Her office reaches out to disseminate health information for women, funds scientists to study the safety and efficacy of medical products as they relate to the health of women, and examines the participation of women in clinical studies. The mix of roles and responsibilities, says Uhl, makes our office very unique within a regulatory agency, that we have a very strong advocacy role. But FDA is a consumer protection agency and our office does just that.
