Keeping abreast of change can be challenging as well as time-consuming. Academic medical centers are challenged every day by the fast pace of innovation, complex governance structures, and a regulatory environment that is seemingly always in transition. These shifting conditions require expert counsel, especially when there are corporate transactions requiring close scrutiny.
