About Projects with Dr. Meyers 2022

Project:
This is an NIH funded implementation science project to study the process by which PrEP is integrated into HIV prevention services. In summer 2022 we expect that 8 project sites will have begun project implementation.

Student Project Activities:
We will be conducting interviews with key stakeholders focused on understanding process. Native-speaking students would be expected to participate in interviewing and if time allows, data analysis. All activities and movement of US students will need to be approved and monitored by the Chinese implementation agency. In the event travel is not possible, interviews could be conducted remotely via video platform.

Number of Students: 1-2
