What this research studies
You can join NIAID-network HIV treatment and prevention trials run at three sites serving Uptown (near Harlem), Chelsea, and Newark. The unit manages enrollment, lab testing, medical monitoring, and follows standardized procedures to protect participants. Staff do community outreach and training to include people from diverse neighborhoods, including African American communities and women. Taking part typically involves regular clinic visits, tests, and access to study medications or prevention options depending on the trial.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: People living with HIV or people at increased risk for HIV who can attend visits at one of the NYC–Newark sites are the best fit for these trials.
Not a fit: People who do not meet specific trial eligibility criteria, cannot come to in-person visits, or live far outside the NYC–Newark area are unlikely to benefit directly from enrollment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this work could give participants early access to improved HIV treatments and prevention options and help reduce infections in hard-hit communities.
How similar studies have performed: Many prior HIV treatment and prevention trials (for antiretroviral therapy and PrEP) have improved care and prevention, and this unit runs similar network studies to build on that progress.
