TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Better data, less gun violence JO - Science A1 - Morral, Andrew R. A1 - Smart, Rosanna SP - e1471 EP - e1471 VL - 377 IS - 6614 N2 - For 25 years, the US government funded little research on firearm violence prevention. Although some dedicated researchers made important discoveries over this period, the scale of the research effort was not commensurate with the problem. Recently, however, there has been an unprecedented surge in research funding: the National Collaborative on Gun Violence Research, a private philanthropy, has awarded more than $21 million since 2018; the federal government has committed $25 million per year since 2019; and some states and other philanthropies have recently invested in such research programs.
