Funded Injury Control Research Centers (ICRCs)

In 1987 the CDC began funding Injury Control Research Centers (ICRCs) throughout the United States to study ways to prevent injuries and disabilities.

Injury Control Research Centers conduct research in all three core phases of injury control (prevention, acute care, and rehabilitation) and serve as training centers as well as information centers for the public. Research design in these centers is interdisciplinary and incorporates the fields of medicine, engineering, epidemiology, law, and criminal justice, behavioral and social sciences, biostatistics, public health, and biomechanics.
