After being pushed out of his FDA role, Califf becomes chair of new research group
Former FDA commissioner Robert Califf, who will likely be replaced by Scott Gottlieb as the new commissioner, has become the chair of the newly formed nonprofit called People-Centered Research Foundation (PCRF).
PCRF was formed by a group of investigators within PCORnet, which was developed with funding support from PCORI, the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute. PCORnet was set up to enhance the ability to conduct patient-centered outcomes research faster, more efficiently, and at a lower cost by using health data and patient partnerships.
