The United States-India relationship has evolved over the past decade from one of distance to a close strategic partnership.

I want to get innovative products to market as fast as possible, and I support more resources for the FDA to be able to do that.

We should be talking about expanding Social Security across the board.

I have supported the proposal advanced by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors to require that researchers share data as a condition of publication in major medical journals.
