Reviews in: Regulatory Science 2024-2025

Regulatory Science plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety, efficacy, and quality of medical products and interventions. Emerging challenges and innovations within the medical field, underscore the importance of current research to adapt regulatory frameworks, practices, and methodologies. This ongoing evolution is driven by technological advances, changes in medical practice, and the increasing complexity of healthcare interventions, highlighting the need for updated and comprehensive reviews to synthesize recent findings and address knowledge gaps.

This Research Topic aims to compile authoritative review articles, as well as mini-reviews and systematic reviews, that capture the latest advancements and outline significant future research directions in Regulatory Science. By focusing on comprehensive overviews and critical analyses, this collection series seeks to document current trends, consolidate existing knowledge, and identify areas requiring further investigation and development. The topic strives to provide a foundation for enhancing regulatory policies, practices, and methodologies crucial for advancing medical science and healthcare delivery.

To gather further insights within the boundaries of medical regulation, we welcome articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes:

• Advances in regulatory frameworks and methodologies
• Impact of new medical technologies on regulatory practices
• Challenges and solutions in global regulatory harmonization
• Regulation of cutting-edge medical treatments and interventions
• Ethical considerations in the evolving landscape of medical regulation

Please note that manuscripts focusing solely on bioinformatics or computational analyses of public genomic or transcriptomic databases, and/or in silico analysis of bibliometric trends, will not be considered for this Research Topic.
