A .38-caliber bullet nearly killed Joseph Sakran, MD, when he was 17 years old. Now a trauma surgeon at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Dr. Sakran has dedicated much of his "second chance" at life to advocating for gun violence prevention. In 2018 he sparked a movement that became known as "This is our Lane." On Dec. 15 he will speak at Northwell Health's Gun Violence Prevention Forum on a panel moderated by <a href='https://www.northwell.edu/chethan-sathya-md'>Chethan Sathya, MD</a>. Ahead of the event, the pediatric trauma surgeon and director of Northwell's Center for Gun Violence Prevention joins Dr. Sakran to discuss:

<ul><li>helping clinicians learn how to talk about gun violence </li>
<li>the upcoming <a href='https://preventgunviolence.com/'>Gun Violence Prevention Forum</a></li>
<li>the link between social determinants of health and gun violence</li>
</ul>
