We’re proud to share that Dr. Sharven Taghavi, Division Chief of Trauma, Acute Care, and Critical Care Surgery, has been awarded a $1.2M CDC grant to study whether bedside intervention during hospitalization can help survivors of violent injury avoid future revictimization.

The three-year project, conducted at University Medical Center New Orleans in collaboration with the Trauma Recovery Center and the Tulane Violence Prevention Institute, expands earlier work connecting patients with behavioral health support, firearm safety education, community resources, and goal-setting tools.

By following survivors aged 16 to 34 in both the short- and long-term, the study aims to understand how hospital-initiated, community-integrated interventions can change outcomes and whether this model can be applied more broadly.

As Dr. Taghavi puts it,
“...Ultimately, I hope this work puts trauma surgeons like me out of the business of treating violent injuries.”

Good news for coffee lovers, new research from Tulane and the U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute found that drinking coffee only in the morning may be linked to a 16% lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease and a 31% lower overall mortality rate.☕

The 10-year study, published by Oxford University Press, tracked more than 40,000 participants and revealed that while timing matters, enjoying your morning cup could support heart and metabolic health.
