will include slide presentations with audio and video components to

resembles an in-person advisory committee meeting.
Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee.
All electronic and written submissions submitted to the Docket (see
ADDRESSES) on or before July 3, 2025, will be provided to the

requested to make their presentation on or before June 26, 2025. Time
allotted for each presentation may be limited. If the number of
registrants requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably
accommodated during the scheduled open public hearing session, FDA may
conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled open
public hearing session. Similarly, room for interested persons to
participate in-person may be limited. If the number of registrants
requesting to speak in-person during the open public hearing is greater
than can be reasonably accommodated in the venue for the in-person
