PDS Core Concepts in Pharmacoepidemiology – Year 1
We began this initiative for PDS by developing an initial list of
topics for inclusion in Year 1 of the Core Concepts in
Pharmacoepidemiology section. Comments on this list and potential
additional topics were solicited from the PDS Editor-in-Chief,PDS Regional Editors, and members of the International Society
for Pharmacoepidemiology (ISPE) Publications and Communications
Committee. After feedback and input was obtained, we prioritized the
final topic list and selected seven for inclusion in Year 1 of the new
section. Our initial invitation to writing groups focused on academic
institutions with pharmacoepidemiology training programs, primarily as a
means of ensuring inclusion of pharmacoepidemiology trainees. A full
listing of the published papers and their topics (one is currently under
review) is shown in Table 1.
