Advisory Committee on Vaccines and Related Biological Products (VRBPAC)

The Advisory Committee on Vaccines and Related Biological Products (VRBPAC) is a group of expert scientists and healthcare professionals that advises the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Their role is to review scientific data on vaccines and other biological products to ensure they are safe, effective, and necessary. VRBPAC recommends whether new vaccines should be approved or existing ones should be updated. Their independent evaluations help guide public health decisions, ensuring that vaccines meet rigorous standards before they are made available to the public.
