What this research studies
This research focuses on advancing the field of injury and violence prevention by conducting interdisciplinary studies and training future researchers and practitioners. The University of North Carolina Injury Prevention Research Center (IPRC) operates through three main cores: administrative support, outreach to communities, and education and training programs. By collaborating with various partners, the center aims to disseminate evidence-based practices and policies that can effectively reduce injuries and violence in diverse populations.

Good fit: Ideal candidates for participation or benefit from this research include individuals and communities affected by injuries or violence, as well as those interested in injury prevention initiatives.
Not a fit: Patients who are not affected by injuries or violence may not receive direct benefits from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to more effective strategies for preventing injuries and violence, ultimately improving community safety and health.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research in injury and violence prevention has shown success in implementing community-based interventions and training programs, indicating that this approach is promising.
