Description:

Registration required.

This webinar is part of the Translational Applications in Public Health mini-series, which is a collaboration between the Institute for Public Health and Medicine (IPHAM) and the Northwestern University Clinical and Translational Sciences (NUCATS) Institute.

We have discovered effective prevention and treatment approaches for HIV/AIDS, yet the number of new HIV infections each year in the US has remained relatively stable over more than a decade. In this talk I will describe two hybrid effectiveness-implementation trials of HIV prevention programs for teen and young adult gay/bisexual men. I will also discuss our approach to supporting the use of implementation science in the federal initiative for Ending the HIV Epidemic in the US by 2030.
