Verification & Validation (V&V) plays a central role in ensuring that medical devices are safe, effective, and compliant — yet it remains one of the most challenging phases for many teams.

In this podcast episode, we sit down with Aaron Joseph, medical device development expert and author of the well-known article “Top 10 V&V Fails”, to explore why V&V so often becomes a source of stress — and how teams can do better.

Throughout the discussion, we cover:

  • A clear, simple explanation of Verification vs. Validation
  • Why V&V must span the entire development lifecycle
  • How poor requirements create downstream V&V failures
  • The risks of starting V&V planning too late
  • How to simplify test methods without losing rigor
  • Practical strategies for handling failed tests
  • How to think about traceability without fear
  • The future of V&V as software and AI become more prevalent

This episode is designed to educate, demystify, and inspire QA/RA professionals, engineers, and MedTech leaders looking to build stronger, more resilient development processes.
