• As submission decisions come in for the upcoming firearms conference in Seattle, please let Sam Banks (sbanks94@uw.ed) know of any acceptances (oral presentations, posters, etc.) so that we can start planning and building out the program. Thank you to everyone who has already done so!

The ideal candidate will have strong analytical skills, be detail-oriented, and have an interest in gun violence, public health, domestic violence, and/or our judicial system. Please see the full job posting here.
