About this position

This FDA research opportunity is based at the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) in Silver Spring, Maryland. The project sits within the FDA’s regulatory science mission and focuses on improving how energy-based surgical devices are organized and tracked across their total product life cycle.

The work centers on a strategic modernization of regulatory taxonomy for these devices. The participant will evaluate current device categories, examine underlying technologies and evolving clinical indications, and compare distinct benefit-risk profiles. Using that analysis, the project aims to build a new hierarchical classification scheme and develop more specific, benefit/risk-based product codes to replace legacy categories.

The fellowship is designed to strengthen the Center’s ability to follow technological trends, support clearer regulatory organization, and improve both premarket review efficiency and post-market surveillance. Under mentor guidance, the participant will contribute to efforts that help the FDA maintain timely, science-based oversight of medical devices and support innovation through more predictable regulatory pathways.
