ABOUT THE SUMMIT

The North American Biocompatibility Summit (NABS) is a limited-seating event that provides industry insights and expertise sharing on the biocompatibility of medical devices. Sessions include the latest regulatory updates, biological evaluation strategies and best practices that lead to successful biocompatibility programs.  

Led by the medical device industry’s foremost biological safety experts, speakers will address:

  • Regulatory strategies and how they relate to ISO 10993
  • New and innovative biocompatibility methods and technologies
  • The relationship between material/chemical characterization and biocompatibility testing
  • Toxicology and risk management
  • Industry case studies

Join us for this one day exclusive summit to learn and network with top scientists, toxicologists, and industry leaders in the medical device biocompatibility field!
