She has been on the job since March, 2009. <\/p>\n<p> Since her announcement, there has been much praise and criticism of Hamburg&#8217;s job.   <\/p>\n<p> Hamburg wasn&#8217;t on anybody&#8217;s radar when Pharma Marketing News surveyed readers about who the next FDA Commissioner would be back in the fall of 2008. This time, there is only ONE person on the radar of most industry pundits: Robert Califf, M.D., Professor of Cardiology at the Duke University School of Medicine. <\/p>\n<p> In a new survey, <i>Pharma Marketing News<\/i> asks your opinion about who should be the next FDA commissioner.
