ACI’s Drug and Med Advisory Board
American Conference Institute’s Drug and Medical Device Litigation Advisory board was created as a part of ACI’s ongoing effort to provide industry leading content and a world renowned speaker faculty. The board is composed of a selection of all-in-house advisers from the leading pharmaceutical and medical device companies in the country and in some cases the world. This ‘inner circle’ counsels ACI on the impact of litigation trends and emerging topics.
