Colleen Crowe, MD, MPH, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Emergency Medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW). Her research spans diverse areas including synthetic biology, epidemiology of infectious diseases, neurology, and geriatric health outcomes. She has contributed to studies on antimicrobial resistance, foodborne pathogens, and clinical protocols in critical care. Her work also addresses medical education and resident feedback mechanisms in emergency medicine settings.

Notable research interests include the application of halogenases in synthetic chemistry, the synergistic effects of caffeine on anesthetic responses, and narcolepsy epidemiology in pediatric populations. Her entomological work explores chemical attractants for pest control. In public health, she investigates frailty’s impact on mobility and driving safety among older adults.

Dr. Crowe has authored peer-reviewed articles in journals like Chemical Society Reviews, Molecular Pharmacology, and Epidemiology and Infection. Her studies often bridge basic science and clinical practice, with implications for public health policy and emergency care protocols.
