Tracy Beth Hoeg, acting director of the Food and Drug Administration’s drug research center, said on May 15 that she had been fired from her position, days after the FDA commissioner resigned.
“Today I was fired I’m incredibly grateful to have had this opportunity to serve this country & proud of the work we did FDA staff are smart, talented, supportive & don’t get enough credit I learned so much & leave with no regrets,” Hoeg wrote in a Facebook post. She had been in the job for six months.
