In honor of the 25th anniversary of the Johns Hopkins Center for Injury Research and Policy, the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health has established The Susan P. Baker Scholarship in Injury Prevention and Control. Professor Baker is the founding director of the Center, and has played a pivotal role in establishing injury prevention and control as a scientific discipline. Her work over the past four decades has been central to the creation of laws, policies, and programs that have saved countless lives. Perhaps most significantly, Sue has also worked tirelessly to teach and mentor students, many of whom are now in leadership positions around the globe. Notable contributions already made by Sue’s students include: promoting lifesaving child booster seats and automatic fire sprinkler systems; identifying inadequate protections for medical helicopter crews; providing the research basis for laws restricting teen drivers’ licenses; and establishing centers of excellence devoted to injury research. Your gift to the Susan P. Baker Scholarship in Injury Prevention and Control today will ensure the next generation of injury prevention leaders.
