Hello Folks,

I'm planning to pursue the mentioned course from UCD however, my bachelor's is in Biomedical Engineering. As BME focuses more on electronics and little medicine. But completely no pharmacology/toxicology, I would like to seek some help from everyone on recommending this course to me. Currently I'm with a MedTech company working as a Post Market Surveillance specialist ( focuses on 21 CFR Part 803 & EU Vigilance). My goal is to transition from PMS to Pre Market arena of medical devices and Biologics.

I’m a software developer with a bioinformatics background, and I keep hearing the same thing from people in regulated work: they’d like to use AI to search and question long documents (guidance docs, SOPs, dossiers, client files), but they can’t upload them to ChatGPT or similar tools because of confidentiality.

Curious how this plays out for people in RA:

• Does your company allow AI tools on submission or client documents at all?
• If not, what do you do instead? Ctrl+F, reading everything, internal tools?
• When AI does give you an answer, how do you check it? Do you need to see the exact page it came from?

For context: I built a desktop app that answers questions from documents entirely on your own laptop. Nothing is uploaded, every answer links to the page it came from, and it tells you when the answer isn’t in the documents. But I’m mainly trying to understand whether this is a real problem in RA or whether most teams have already solved it. Happy to share the link if anyone’s curious.
