Lara B. McKenzie studies patterns of unintentional injuries in children and adults, using large administrative datasets (such as emergency department records and poison control data) to describe how, where, and why people get hurt from everyday products and activities. Her work covers a wide range of topics including sports and recreational injuries (e.g., lacrosse, field hockey, martial arts, sledding, golf carts), household hazards (magnets, foreign-body ingestion, cosmetics, home safety practices), and burn and traffic-related injuries, often aiming to inform prevention strategies and public health messaging.
