Marty McCary, Commissioner of the FDA, welcome to San Francisco. Great to be here, Dave. Good to be with you. Yeah, thanks. It's JP Morgan Healthcare Conference this week in San Francisco, considered, I think, probably the biggest more most important biotech conference globally.

Very important week. So you're visiting this week for the conference? Yeah. 120,000 people, great conversations you hear from everybody, just not enough time to meet with everybody you want to meet with, but it's a great time. Well, thanks for sitting down with me.

You and I have gotten to know each other a little bit over the last year or so. Yeah. And I'm really excited to hear a little bit about how things are going. It's been almost a year since you've been in the role. I think maybe for our audience you could share a little bit about how you got this role.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.
