CDC Injury Research Agenda

cover of injury research agendaThe CDC Injury Research Agenda was developed with extensive input from its academic research centers, national nonprofit organizations, and other federal agencies with a stake in injury prevention. This blueprint to prevent injuries and their resulting disabilities, deaths, and costs will guide research in seven key areas of injury prevention and control:  

  • At home and in the community;
  • Sports, recreation, and exercise;
  • Transportation;
  • Intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and child maltreatment;
  • Suicidal behavior;
  • Youth violence; and
  • Acute care, disability, and rehabilitation—because progress in controlling injuries is inextricably linked to the nation’s ability to treat the injured and help them recover.

The agenda identifies CDC’s highest priorities for each area—those research issues that CDC must address to fulfill its public health responsibilities. By defining research needs in a diverse field, CDC expects to maximize efficient and effective use of resources and encourage collaboration among researchers and practitioners.  A press release and fact sheets are available.
