Thanks to the talented @HayleyAmie, @tbrownsln and @jwrobel1 we were funded by the Institute of Cannabis Research to study the effects of cannabis on eye tracking. 🎉🇦🇺🌏
New research from a team including Injury Center Director @AshleyB_Russell found that from 2017-2019, cannabis product exposures increased overall as did the proportion of cannabis cases that were associated with edible products. https://t.co/LFNK6bb1Wx
Congratulations to Injury Center member and @ColoradoSPH@CUAnschutz alum Erin Kelly, DrPH, for winning a National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) New Investigator Research Award from @PublicHealth! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you @BarackObama for sharing our report and continuing to shed light on #gunviolence. I'm hopeful that the urgency and resolve you call for can be applied to enacting evidence-based policies to #stopgunviolence in all its forms (recs in report)!
9 yr old was pretending to be a grown up sipping coffee this morning and his fake dialogue started with, "they said it was 80%..." Apparently adults like to talk about statistics😂
Thanks to Dr. Velopulos, Ms. Lovedale and Ms. Cleveland for their presentation on the new Hospital-based Violence Intervention program in Aurora.
