Regulatory Futures and Medical Devices: Where Next for Europe and the United Kingdom?

Abstract

The symposium in this issue of Law, Technology and Humans brings together a range of scholars looking at the broad question of where next for medical devices regulation in the European Union (EU) and the United Kingdom (UK). Initially arising out of a workshop held in September 2022,[1] our motivation for the symposium is rooted in the challenges raised by what has been a significant period of change in both the EU and the UK when it comes to medical devices regulation.
