Can a faculty physician or staff member invite a representative from Industry to a faculty meeting to discuss a new drug or device that is under consideration for clinical use?
A SOHS or UPMC employee may request, via the appropriate organization’s purchasing department, to schedule a presentation by an Industry representative. If the product will be purchased with University funds under a University account number, see the University’s Purchasing website www.bc.pitt.edu/purchasing for instructions; otherwise, contact UPMC’s Supply Chain Management department http://purchasing.upmc.com or customerservicesupplychain@upmc.edu. The Industry representative must be registered with the appropriate organization’s purchasing department, must have completed required training, and must comply with badging requirements. Any such presentation should allow time for attendees to fully discuss questions related to the data presented, and no gifts may be provided to attendees.
