Audience
FDA regulates some 20% of the U.S. consumer economy, including food, drugs, medical devices, and dietary supplements. This guide applies not only to all those products, but to anyone in a job situation with a duty or desire to inform. We hope that it will help to foster a community of researchers and practitioners committed to evidence-based communications. We invite readers to join that community. Membership should not only aid their own work, but also help to protect the commons of public goodwill upon which all communications depend. Everyone benefits when individuals receive needed information in a timely, concise, comprehensible way, building warranted trust in their own decision-making abilities and in the institutions that support them.
