underrepresented or underserved populations is desired. There must
be recent peer-reviewed publications and demonstrated experience in

research on the individual and societal causes, consequences, and
prevention of firearm violence or other forms of violence. Some of
this experience must be at the leadership level. Thorough knowledge

designs and, as appropriate, quantitative and/or qualitative
methods for observational and experimental research are expected.
Strong written and verbal communication abilities are required.
Candidates must have demonstrated the ability to work cooperatively
and collegially in a diverse environment. Candidates must be able

not limited to, ergonomic stressors involved in computer work.
Field research conducted by VPRP investigators has required data
collection under adverse and hazardous conditions.

disseminate the research evidence on which informed policy and
practice are based. VPRP and CA FVRC are directed by Garen J.
