FDA says CDER’s new Advanced Manufacturing Research Facility is “a new laboratory for evaluating innovative drug manufacturing technologies and ensuring drugs produced with the technologies are safe, effective, and high-quality.” An online [post](https://www.fda.gov/drugs/science-and-research-drugs/advanced-manufacturing-research-facility-amrf?ref=fdaweb.com) says CDER uses this facility to lead regulatory science research for current and new advanced manufacturing technologies and strengthen the agency’s connection between research, policy, and assessment.

The 18,000-square foot state-of-the-art research space has a flexible design so it can be reconfigured rapidly as needed to research regulatory science priorities, FDA says.

The facility includes a multi-use laboratory for various research needs, an analytical testing laboratory for rigorous evaluation and testing, and specialized laboratories focused on understanding the impact of emerging manufacturing technologies on the quality of solid oral dosage forms, complex drug products, active pharmaceutical ingredients, and biotechnology processes.
