PCAST Welcomes Public Input on Nutrition Research
The President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) to identify scientific opportunities, gaps, and priorities to continue to advance nutrition science, emphasizing equitable access to the benefits of research. PCAST is working with the Interagency Committee on Human Nutrition Research, the Office of Science and Technology Policy, and the Interagency Policy Council on Nutrition to seek public input to inform a vision for advancing nutrition science. You can read the blog post and learn more here. PCAST seeks public input to inform a vision for advancing nutrition science:
- How can the United States obtain the greatest return from federal investment in nutrition research?
- What are the crucial evidence gaps in nutrition research and what steps could PCAST recommend that would substantially fill those gaps?
- What tools, methods, or other resources (in addition to funding) are needed to conduct that research?
- Are there other barriers to research (other than inadequate funding)?
- Are there models from other fields of science that could be employed to fill nutrition research evidence gaps?
- How could/should research-based interventions for primary and secondary prevention of diet-related chronic diseases be introduced into federal programs?
- What can be done to assure equitable access to the benefits of the federal nutrition research investment?
PCAST will consult with experts and federal agencies that are responsible for food and nutrition programs and research and would also like to hear from you. Please send your ideas and responses to these questions to: pcast@ostp.eop.gov with “Nutrition” in the subject line. Unfortunately, we cannot commit to corresponding on all submissions, but we may invite contributors to present their ideas to the working group as part of our evolving process to develop recommendations. There is no deadline for responses.
If you do not plan to submit your own response, but would like to inform ASN’s response please share your feedback with Sarah Ohlhorst, ASN’s Chief Science Policy Officer, at sohlhorst@nutrition.org or reach out to Sarah with any questions.
Sharing opportunities with ANDP Members!
Reminder, one benefit of ANDP Membership is the opportunity to share open faculty positions at your institution as well as other relevant opportunities to other nutrition departments and programs. Share your requests with andp@nutrition.org for distribution. Note, the opportunities must be approved by ANDP Chair before sharing with full membership.
