Opportunities for advocacy at FDA - 1249531

After reading through these forums, I've noticed there are saavy advocates on this site who have developed a formidable knowledge base, and passion about the cancer they've had personal experience with.
For those who are eligible and interested, I think it may be a great opportunity to apply for the FDA Patient Representative program. I understand that selected advocates have the chance to provide input on advisory committees. I do not have any personal affiliation with this program. There is information about it below.
