Biography
Charles Mathias research focuses on the assessment and interpretation of impulsivity, which underlies aggressive behavior towards others, suicidal self-injury, unregulated behavior following traumatic brain injury, and substance abuse. Because expression of these behaviors often leads to contact with safety net systems, his research has increasingly focused on health service delivery in a community context, such as pretrial supervision. Experience with county level programing lead to appointment as a health representative to the Impaired Driving Taskforce for the Texas Department of Transportation.
