SAVE THE DATE!!! The 2022 National Research Conference on Firearm Injury Prevention will highlight the current state of the science and research on #firearminjury prevention across the lifespan. Sign up to get updates on the conference: bit.ly/3hO7Jzw

Researching for my #ChiefGrandRounds on #FirearmInjury . The data is sobering & even more upsetting that African-American children are the majority of morbidity/mortality. We’re the highest of most medical disparities, yet some resist diversity in medicine. I can’t understand it.

AFFIRM at the Aspen Institute is hiring a Program Manager.

See the job description and apply to be apart of the greatest team working to decrease #firearminjury

We don’t have to live like this. This is a choice, and our failing.

After years of practice, we've come up with the best camping hacks every camper should know! Because for every magical campfire there's one realization that you forgot the matches, but with these tips, you won't be left feeling unprepared.

#FirearmInjury is a public health crisis and we must treat it as such. Research, prevention, & common sense reforms (access, training, etc.) are all components we should be able to agree on.

What can we do about #firearminjury ? Create and implement HVIPs in our hospitals for younger children! Thankful to have worked on this review highlighting the use and potential of HVIPs to prevent future #gunviolence in our kids

Folks asked if I’m worried if Egypt is going to be safe, but when we landed in Cairo yesterday & we told our cab driver we live in Chicago, his reply was “oh wow, it is dangerous there! lots of guns!” what an interesting reminder of our uniquely American epidemic. #firearminjury

Nice to hear #FirearmInjury and community violence intervention featured in the #StateOfTheUnion Would love to see programs like Chicago CRED The HAVI and KAVI | Kings Against Violence Initiative get the investment and recognition they deserve.

Very exciting inaugural National Research Conference on Firearm Injury Prevention is happening in Washington DC 11/29-12/1.
The GW Center for Injury Prevention is excited to have faculty members attending.
