Description of Research
Peter Cronholm, MD, MSCE is an Assistant Professor, recently completing a Faculty Development Fellowship and a Master of Science in Clinical Epidemiology at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Cronholm's time is divided between clinical, teaching, research and advocacy interests. His research interests have focused on health services regarding: 1) the primary care management of perpetration of intimate partner violence; 2) assessing psychosocial needs of families and patients with cancer; 3) screening for adolescent depression in the acute care setting; 4) pre-teen violence prevention initiatives; 5) assessing Philadelphia-area fathering providers’ practices regarding intimate partner violence; and 5) assessing the risk of neighborhood variables on firearm injury and health. He is an Adjunct Scholar at the Center for Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, a Senior Scholar at the Leonard Davis Center for Healthcare Economics and an Associate of the Firearm and Injury Center at Penn. Dr. Cronholm is the Director of Community Programs for the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health. For this he coordinates and evaluates the didactic and experiential components of the community medicine curriculum for the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health residency program. Dr. Cronholm is also involved with the department’s pre-Doctoral division in teaching community medicine to medical students during their Family Medicine clerkship.
He is actively involved in community programs addressing family violence, and he is also a Clinical Consultant and has served as the Director of the Men's Council on Family Violence for the Institute for Safe Families (ISF) in addition to being a member of ISF's Clinical Network on Family Violence. The mission of ISF is to addresses the health and well-being of the family as individuals, in their families, and in the communities that surround them. ISF works to prevent family violence and to offer an alternative vision for wholeness, healing, family health, and personal empowerment. Particular attention is paid to promoting changes in systems and policies that effect families living with interpersonal violence. He serves on the Board of Directors for the Men’s Resource Center (MRC). MRC was founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1979 to provide counseling services for men going through transitions - including relational, anger management and domestic violence issues. Dr. Cronholm also serves as a Clinical Consultant and member of the Policy Committee for the Women's Death Review team: A project of the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office, Women in Transition, and the Philadelphia Health Management Corporation whose central objectives are: 1) to track the incidence and prevalence of violence-related deaths of women; 2) to identify the degree to which intimate partner violence contributes to the community's mortality; 3) to identify patterns and trends in violence-related deaths of women; and 4) to formulate key policy and practice recommendations to improve the systems that serve and protect women and their children. He is married with two Basset Hounds and have recently welcomed their first child, Emma, into the family.
