Helen Branswell<p>In his (forced) resignation letter, the <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/FDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FDA</span></a>'s former chief vaccine regulator Peter Marks pulls no punches. He tried to work with Robert Kennedy to assuage his concerns about vaccine safety. That's not what the HHS secretary is looking for, Marks concluded. <a href="https://www.statnews.com/2025/03/28/fda-peter-marks-cber-director-resigns-rfk-jr/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">statnews.com/2025/03/28/fda-pe</span><span class="invisible">ter-marks-cber-director-resigns-rfk-jr/</span></a></p>
Simona Zompì<p>I understand and support Dr. Peter Marks’ decision to resign from the <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/FDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FDA</span></a> and at the same time I’m deeply saddened as he has been supporting the advancement of novel cell and gene therapies I have been directly working on. I have been admiring his leadership, heard him speaking at many conferences and I am even more admirative now that he came forward saying that Kennedy Jr’s stance on <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/vaccines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vaccines</span></a> is irresponsible and a danger to <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/publichealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>publichealth</span></a>.
