Doug Zatzick, MD completed a Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars Fellowship at the University of California at San Francisco and is currently Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. Over the past two decades, Dr. Zatzick has developed a public health approach to trauma-focused research that has emphasized the development and roll-out of effectiveness-implementation hybrid clinical trials in acute care medical settings. These pragmatically focused trials have targeted posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and related co-morbid conditions including depression, suicidal ideation, and alcohol and drug use problems among injured youth and adults. From 2009 to 2012, Dr. Zatzick served as Chairperson of the National Institute of Mental Health, Services in Non-specialty Settings (NIMH, SRNS) Study Section. He has also served on the congressionally mandated United States Institute of Medicine four-year assessment of PTSD treatment, and the World Health Organization Stress Disorders Guideline Development Group. Dr. Zatzick has participated in disaster relief and early intervention efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the January 2010 Haiti earthquake. He was Medical Director of the University of Washington’s Harborview Level I Trauma Center Psychiatric Consultation Liaison Service from 2005-2011, and in this capacity provided front-line clinical services to ethnoculturally diverse, acutely injured trauma survivors. Dr. Zatzick has helped to orchestrate a series of American College of Surgeons’ policy summits that have harnessed the results of comparative effectiveness trials to inform national trauma center regulatory requirements. Currently, Dr. Zatzick is the principal investigator of a NIH Healthcare Systems Research Collaboratory/NIMH-sponsored, 25 level I trauma center site effectiveness-implementation hybrid pragmatic trial that aims to develop and roll-out screening and intervention procedures for PTSD and related comorbidities across trauma care systems nationally.
