Summary:

"This CDC Injury Research Agenda describes our research needs and priorities for 2009-2018 Our initial research agenda was published in 2002 to guide research through 2007, and it has been invaluable in directing our research efforts Throughout the past 2 years, we updated and revised the agenda, reviewing research accomplishments to date and progress toward achieving the goals outlined in the original agenda In developing this update, we considered information and recommendations from the CDC report, Advancing the Nation's Health: A Guide to Public Health Research Needs, 2006-2015, as well as the objectives and strategies outlined in action plans associated with CDC's Health Protection Goals (http://www cdc gov/osi/goals/goals html) and Healthy People 2010 (http://www healthypeople gov) Investing in the priorities outlined in this research agenda will help prevent needless deaths and painful, costly injuries We know that we can make a difference We look forward to working with the injury prevention and control community to implement this agenda for a safer, healthier nation -- one in which all people can live to their full potential."--Page 5.
