Working Group, Joanna Paxton Federico

Joanna Paxton Federico, a Ph.D. candidate at Rutgers workshopped the first chapter of her dissertation, which explores the emergence of violence as an object of public health interest in the 1960s and early 1970s. Much of her project focuses on the production of ignorance (agnotology) around the effects of gun violence, and her work delves into the relationships between intentional and unintentional injuries.
