Art Kellerman On Firearm Research and The Dickey Amendment’s Impact Jun 22, 2022

Show notes

“That was all the CDC needed to know, as in, don’t mess with this subject anymore”

Dr. Art Kellerman is Professor and Senior Vice President for Health Sciences at Virginia Commonwealth University and CEO of VCU Health System. He also is a public health expert especially around the epidemiology and prevention of firearm-related violence and injuries.

In 1993 Dr. Kellerman helped author “Gun Ownership as a Risk Factor for Homicide in the Home”, a paper which led to the Dickey Amendment and a slammed door on further gun violence and injury prevention research. Hearing his perspective and insight is absolutely fascinating.
