  • Editorial: Dr. Joshua Sharfstein at the Annual CRN Conference: Between the Lines<\/a><\/font>
    [2009\/11\/02]<\/font> [By Len Monheit]<\/font>
    One of the predictable takeaways of last week\'s annual CRN conference was the opportunity to interact with regulatory leaders to gauge their priorities related to the industry, and to assess, what, if anything, industry should specifically and immediately do to prevent legislative catastrophe.

    Ever since Congressman Waxman published his book, "The Waxman Report: How Congress Really Works," (actually even before it) rumor has abounded that a new attack on DSHEA was imminent. With several key associates in prominent positions, it was argued, it was only a matter of time before an outright attack would occur, likely with pressure from a number of places, and the appointment of Dr. Joshua Sharfstein, as Principal Deputy Commissioner of the US Food and Drug Administration was one such potential trigger. So it was with a lot of interest that I awaited Dr. Sharfstein\'s CRN presentation at Terranea Resort in Southern California last week.<\/font>
