America’s Epidemic of Gun Violence: The State of the Science

For this Grand Rounds, we’ll examine another epidemic plaguing our country: gun violence. Three experts from the front lines of treating victims will look at firearm injury prevention as a topic of medical education, hospital-based violence intervention programs, and how physicians can be leaders and the voices of moral authority about this topic.

Speakers:
