NIH Implementation Science Consultation Hub Supplement to Support the Ending the HIV Epidemic Initiative awarded to CIRA and Center for Methods in Implementation and Prevention Science (CMIPS)
As part of Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America (EHE), federal agencies have funded implementation science planning projects in priority areas across the United States. To strengthen the quality and technical expertise available to each planning project, five technical support hubs have been funded for one year. Center for Methods in Implementation and Prevention Science (CMIPS) Director Dr. Donna Spiegelman, ScD will be the program director for one of the five hubs, R3EDI: Rigorous, Rapid, & Relevant Evidence aDaptation & Implementation to Ending the HIV Epidemic. Projects assigned to R3EDI are in New York City and environs, New Jersey, Alabama, Mississippi and Cook County, Illinois, and address research questions about faith-based partnerships, use of telehealth in providing routine HIV care, reengagement and retention of HIV+ individuals in long term care, and patient focused management and clinical decision support for Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP).
According to Dr. Spiegelman, "We are thrilled to have been given this opportunity to partner with front-line community-based organizations around the country, and to put our technical skills to work in a collaborative effort to end the AIDS epidemic in this country."
