    Appointed in 1991 to serve as acting health commissioner of New York City, Dr. Margaret A. Hamburg inherited urgent problems, a spare budget and a divided and demoralized staff. The Food and Drug Administration could have a familiar feel for her. The turnaround that she engineered is exactly what the Obama administration is hoping she will achieve at the drug agency, which is reeling from a host of similar problems. On Thursday, the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee will consider whether to confirm Dr. Hamburg as F.D.A. commissioner. The hearing was moved up a week in the wake...

    All the wrong people are excited about Obama's FDA picks.Over the weekend, President Barack Obama nominated Margaret Hamburg to serve as the new commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Joshua Sharfstein to serve as principal deputy commissioner of the agency.The FDA regulates about a quarter of all the consumer products that Americans buy, which roughly equals $1 trillion. Many analysts predict that Hamburg and Sharfstein will divvy up their functions in the agency with Hamburg focusing chiefly on food issues and Sharfstein being charge of drugs and medical devices. What should we expect? To some extent, their...

    President Barack Obama has said the US food safety system is a "public health hazard" and in need of an overhaul. He sounded the warning during his weekly radio and video address, as he appointed a new head of the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA). New York Health Commissioner Margaret Hamburg has been named for the post. Mr Obama cited a string of recent food safety scandals including a salmonella outbreak in peanut products this year that has been linked to nine deaths. The president said recent underfunding and understaffing at the FDA had left the agency unable to...

    Washington, DC -- President Barack Obama plans to nominate former New York City Health Commissioner Margaret Hamburg as the commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration. Hamburg is served as assistant HHS secretary during the Clinton administration and has been a key abstinence education opponent. Hamburg takes a pro-abortion position and ran New York City's abortion counseling and family-planning centers for former mayor Rudy Giuliani. The nation's largest city is also the location of one of the highest abortion rates in the country.

    The Obama administration has tapped Margaret A. Hamburg, a physician and former New York City health commissioner with an interest in bioterrorism, to run the struggling Food and Drug Administration, according to people familiar with the choice. Joshua Sharfstein, Baltimore's health commissioner, will serve as Hamburg's chief deputy, according to these sources. Sharfstein won national attention when he took on the drug industry and petitioned the FDA in 2007 to restrict the use of over-the-counter cough and cold medications for young children.

Hamburg, 53, a physician who has worked extensively on bioterrorism issues, is a senior scientist at the Nuclear Threat Initiative, a Washington-based foundation focused on threats from nuclear, biological and chemical weapons.
