L. Kevin Hamberger, PhD, is Professor of Family and Community Medicine, Medical College of Wisconsin. Since 1982, his research, scholarship, clinical work, and community work have been in the area of intimate partner violence. For 27 years, Dr. Hamberger conducted a program of treatment and research for domestically violent men. In this arena, Dr. Hamberger’s research focused on characteristics and treatment outcomes with domestically violent offenders, including study of treatment effectiveness, predicting premature treatment termination, and recidivism following treatment completion. More recently, he has studied different gender-related contexts and motivations for the use of violence against intimate partners. This research focused on identification of motivations for using IPV among men and women who used force against their intimate partners, and development of gender-specific interventions for males and females arrested for IPV. A third area of research Dr. Hamberger has engaged in is IPV as a healthcare issue. In particular, he has studied prevalence of IPV in family medicine settings and was PI on the CDC-funded program Healthcare can change from within – a project that demonstrated that when the clinic system changes to support IPV screening and brief intervention, more patients are screened and make fewer doctor visits, but view the health clinic as a resource for help with IPV. He is also presently collaborating with colleagues to develop and implement trauma informed care principles into primary care medical practice settings. He is on the editorial boards of four peerreviewed journals dedicated to the study of interpersonal violence. Dr. Hamberger has also served on several grant review committees for the NIH, CDC, and NIJ. He has published over 120 articles and chapters and 6 books, including Treating Men Who Batter: Theory, Practice and Programs (with P. Lynn Caesar), Domestic Partner Abuse (with Claire Renzetti), and Domestic Violence Screening and Intervention in Medical and Mental Healthcare Settings (with Mary Beth Phelan). Dr. Hamberger also served on the Board of Directors of a women’s shelter and advocacy program in Southeastern Wisconsin for more than 10 years and on the Wisconsin Governor’s Council on Domestic Abuse for 25 years. He was a Founding Member and leader of the Wisconsin Batterers Treatment Provider Association and a Member of the Board of Directors of the National Partnership to End Interpersonal Violence, where he co-chaired the Translation and Dissemination Committee. In 2011, Dr. Hamberger was recognized by the Institute on Violence, Abuse and Trauma (IVAT) with the Linda Saltzman Intimate Partner Violence Researcher Award, and in 2019, he was recognized by the National Partnership to End Interpersonal Violence with the Heritage Award, which recognizes lifetime achievement in work to end and prevent interpersonal violence.

Alan Rosenbaum, PhD,  is Professor Emeritus of Clinical Psychology at Northern Illinois University. During his 40 years career, he published more than 100 articles, books, and book chapters. He was one of the first psychologists to study and publish research-based articles on intimate partner violence, including the first empirical study of batterers using data collected from the batterers themselves. He also published the first studies on the effects of battering on witnessing children, as well as the first studies examining the relationship between head injury, neuropsychological functioning, and intimate partner violence. Dr. Rosenbaum has given hundreds of keynote addresses, presentations, lectures, and workshops, nationally and internationally. He developed and operated, for 15 years, the Men’s Educational Workshop, which was the largest university-based batterer intervention/anger management program in the United States.
