This CIG is a group of senior and junior investigators with translational projects in all stages of development. The purpose of the group is to prevent and reduce unintentional injury and violence, the leading cause of death for Americans age 1 \u2013 44 years old. For people older than 44 years, injury is a significant cause of morbidity. We currently conduct injury prevention research across the entire age spectrum, from newborns to seniors. Our proposed IP CIG will continue this effort. The major causes of unintentional injury include motor vehicle crashes (occupant, pedestrian, bicyclist, motorcyclist), falls, burns, poisoning, and drowning. Major causes of violence include assault, homicide, self-inflicted injury, suicide, child\/elder abuse and neglect, and intimate partner violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Injury Prevention CIG team is under the direction of\u00a0Dr.\u00a0Brendan Campbell,\u00a0Mr. Garry Lapidus\u00a0and\u00a0Attorney Kevin Borrup.
