The Food and Drug Administration will hold a public workshop entitled “Towards Good Simulation Practices in Health Technologies.” The meeting will be held April 13-15, 2020.

The purpose of the public workshop is to discuss modeling and simulation practices currently used in health technologies by industry and to develop a framework for evaluating and assessing the utility of computational modeling and simulation in health technologies, according to FDA.

To register for the workshop [**CLICK HERE**](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/workshops-conferences-medical-devices/public-workshop-towards-good-simulation-practices-health-technologies-04132020-04152020).   
   
The key topics to be discussed are the role of computational modeling and simulation in the regulatory evaluation of health technologies and current simulation practices. The goal of the event is to gather input to inform the development of good simulation practice recommendations, according to FDA.  
   
The meeting will take place at the FDA White Oak Campus, 10903 New Hampshire Avenue,  Silver Spring, MD.  
The meeting will be webcasted live; [**CLICK HERE**](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/workshops-conferences-medical-devices/public-workshop-towards-good-simulation-practices-health-technologies-04132020-04152020) to register for the webcast.

There is no fee to register for the Workshop.  Early registration is recommended because seating is limited. Registration will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
