I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Emergency Medicine at Rhode Island Hospital/Alpert Medical School of Brown University; Director and Founder of the Brown Emergency Digital Health Innovation program (www.brownedhi.org); and Director of Special Projects in the Department of Emergency Medicine. I completed residency in emergency medicine and a fellowship in violence prevention research. My career focus is on developing, testing, and disseminating digital health interventions to reduce violence and related behavioral risk factors among at-risk populations. I am currently Principal Investigator or Co-Investigator on 7 federally funded grants focused on improving the care of at-risk patients. I hold numerous national positions, including serving as an elected member of the Board of Directors of Society for Academic Emergency Medicine and as an editor for Annals of Emergency Medicine. I am also the Chief Research Officer for the American Foundation for Firearm Injury Reduction in Medicine (AFFIRM, www.affirmresearch.org). I have received numerous awards for public health, research, and technology innovation; I am most proud of having received the Leonard Tow Humanism in Medicine Award from the Arnold P. Gold Foundation. You can find me on Twitter @meganranney.
