The '''Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research''' ('''CBER''') is one of six main centers for the [[Food and Drug Administration|U.S. Food and Drug Administration]] (FDA), which is a part of the [[U.S. Department of Health and Human Services]]. The current Director of CBER is [[Peter Marks (physician)|Peter Marks]], M.D., PhD. CBER is responsible for assuring the safety, purity, potency, and effectiveness of [[biologic medical product|biologics]] and related products (such as [[vaccine]]s, live biotherapeutics ([[probiotic]]s), [[blood product]]s, and [[Cell therapy|cell, tissue]], and [[Gene therapy|gene]] therapies). Not all biologics are regulated by CBER. [[Monoclonal antibodies]] and other therapeutic proteins are regulated by the FDA [[Center for Drug Evaluation and Research]] (CDER).
