How their research is transforming health care
By researching poisoning prevention and critical care toxicology, Dr. Jackson can reduce the incidence of intentional and unintentional poising and overdoses in the community while ensuring that pre-hospital and hospital-based providers are ready to respond with the most updated knowledge and techniques for resuscitation of the acutely poisoned patient. Additionally, Dr. Jackson is exploring innovative new ways to promote education of toxicologic concepts to professional health students and physicians, thus transforming healthcare for community members, patients, and healthcare providers.
