Collaborative HIV/AIDS Policy Research Center Award
CHRP is pleased to announce a Call for Applications for Collaborative HIV/AIDS Policy Research Center Awards to support multi-disciplinary teams of investigators working in partnership with consumers, advocates, and policymakers to conduct policy-relevant research. The awards are intended to encourage policy research that addresses important and timely research questions and strengthen local, state, and national capacity to enact HIV-relevant policy that is informed by objective and rigorously conducted research. This research is intended to produce new knowledge that can be applied to improve prevention and care services for affected persons and populations.
