Before enrolling in Johns Hopkins, Teret worked as a personal injury lawyer in upstate New York. He joined the Johns Hopkins faculty after receiving his M.P.H. from there in 1979.[3] One of his former students at Johns Hopkins was Garen Wintemute.[4] In 1995, Teret was the founding director of Johns Hopkins' Center for Gun Policy and Research, and served as director from then until 2001.[1]
Research
Teret has been studying gun violence and gun policy from a public health perspective since 1979.[1][3] He is particularly well-known for his work on smart guns, which he became interested after a baby whose family he knew was killed by another child with a gun.[5]
