IMPROVING COMPREHENSIVE AIDS RESPONSE ENHANCED FOR SUSTAINABILITY (ICARES)

ACCELERATED COMPREHENSIVE AIDS RESPONSE FOR EPIDEMIC CONTROL AND SUSTAINABILITY (?CARES) - DESPITE THE SUCCESSES OF THE NIGERIAN ART SURGE PROGRAM IN INCREASING THE TREATMENT COVERAGE IN SURGE AND NON-SURGE STATES, DATA REVEALS THAT A CONSIDERABLE GAP IN TREATMENT COVERAGE STILL EXISTS IN SOME SUB-NATIONAL UNITS AND SUB-POPULATIONS SUCH AS; PAEDIATRICS, ADOLESCENTS, KEY POPULATION (KP), PREGNANT AND BREASTFEEDING WOMEN. THIS RFA SEEKS TO SUPPORT THE GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA (GON) TO ACHIEVE HIV EPIDEMIC CONTROL WITHIN AGE AND SEX BANDS, RETAIN IN CARE ALL PLHIV AND ENSURE VIRAL SUPPRESSION. OUR ACCELERATED COMPREHENSIVE AIDS RESPONSE FOR EPIDEMIC CONTROL AND SUSTAINABILITY (CARES) PROJECT WILL IMPLEMENT A HYBRID OF FACILITY AND COMMUNITY-BASED INTERVENTIONS AND LEVERAGE THE CURRENT ART SURGE PROGRAM TO ADDRESS THE REMAINING GAPS. THIS PROJECT WILL BUILD ON GAINS OF OUR SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM: IMPROVING COMPREHENSIVE AIDS RESPONSE ENHANCED FOR SUSTAINABILITY (ICARES), WHICH RAPIDLY SCALED UP HIV CASE IDENTIFICATION IN BENUE SURGE STATE FROM A WEEKLY MEDIAN OF 125 TO A CONSISTENTLY OVER 700 NEW CASES PER WEEK; WHILE ACCOUNTING FOR 30% (358,556) OF CDC NIGERIA TREATMENT CURRENT WITH 95% OF CLIENTS RETAINED AND 95% VIRALLY SUPPRESSED. TO IMPLEMENT A MIXED MODEL OF EFFICIENT HIV TESTING AND LINKAGE APPROACHES IN FACILITIES AND COMMUNITIES, APIN WILL USE DATA-DRIVEN EVIDENCE TO IDENTIFY HIV POSITIVES IN THE COMMUNITIES, IMPLEMENT SOCIAL NETWORK STRATEGY FOR KPS’, MAXIMIZE INDEX TESTING AND PROVIDER INITIATED TESTING AND COUNSELING AT FACILITIES, AS WELL AS EXPAND PMTCT CASE FINDING TO COMMUNITIES. FURTHERMORE, WE WILL IMPLEMENT TESTED, INNOVATIVE, AND CLIENT-CENTRIC INTERVENTIONS FOR OPTIMAL PLHIV TREATMENT CONTINUITY, ADVANCED HIV DISEASE MANAGEMENT, AND DURABLE VIRAL SUPPRESSION BY UTILIZING TEST AND START AND DIFFERENTIATED SERVICE DELIVERY MODELS. APIN WILL USE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND NEXT GENERATION ANALYTICS TO MITIGATE INTERRUPTION IN TREATMENT, OPTIMIZE ART REGIMEN, ENHANCE ADHERENCE FOR VIRAL SUPPRESSION, SCREEN, DIAGNOSE, AND MANAGE AHD; WHILE PROVIDING QUALITY SERVICES AND EMPOWERMENT FOR OVC WITH THEIR HOUSEHOLDS AND COMMUNITIES. SIMILARLY, TO PREVENT NEW HIV INFECTIONS THROUGH EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS AT FACILITY AND COMMUNITY LEVELS, WE WILL DEPLOY A COMBINATION OF PREVENTION STRATEGIES THAT INCLUDE BIOMEDICAL, BEHAVIOURAL AND STRUCTURAL, TARGETING DRIVERS OF THE EPIDEMIC. APIN WILL PROVIDE RELIABLE AND TIMELY LAB SERVICES TO DIAGNOSE, CONTROL, PREVENT, AND MONITOR HIV AND OTHER DISEASES BY SCALING UP ITS VIRAL LOAD AND EID TESTING INFRASTRUCTURE AND DEPLOYING THE LIMS-EMR-NDR DATA EXCHANGE TO REDUCE THE TURNAROUND TIME OF RESULTS.

HIFY WILL TRAIN YOUTH LEADERS FROM THESE COMMUNITIES SO THAT THEY HAVE KNOWLEDGE TO SHARE WITH THEIR PEER GROUPS ABOUT RISK AND PREVENTION, AND GAIN EXPERIENCE NAVIGATING LOCAL YOUTH CARE RESOURCES THAT THEY CAN PASS ON. IN SAN FRANCISCO, MEN WHO HAVE SEX WITH MEN (MSM) ARE STILL AT GREATEST RISK IN THE HIV EPIDEMIC, AND LATINO AND AFRICAN AMERICAN MSM ARE AT INCREASING AND DISPROPORTIONATE RISK. WITHIN OUR TARGET AGE RANGE, SOME YOUNG MEN ARE "OUT" AS GAY OR BISEXUAL AND SOME MAY BE EXPERIMENTING, UNSURE OF THEIR ORIENTATION, OR "ON THE DOWN LOW." HIFY THEREFORE PROPOSES TO ENGAGE: (1) LOW-INCOME YOUNG MEN OF COLOR—PARTICULARLY AFRICAN AMERICANS AND LATINOS; AND (2) OUT LGBTQ YOUTH OF COLOR, REGARDLESS OF GENDER, RECOGNIZING THAT YOUNG GAY AND BISEXUAL MEN AND TRANSGENDER YOUTH ARE AT DISPROPORTIONATE RISK FOR HIV AND ALL ARE AT DISPROPORTIONATE RISK FOR SUBSTANCE MISUSE. THE GOALS OF THE PROPOSED INTERVENTION ARE: - TO INCREASE KNOWLEDGE AMONG YOUTH LEADERS OF HIV AND SUBSTANCE USE RISKS GENERALLY, AND TO DEVELOP THEIR SPECIFIC AWARENESS OF PERSONAL RISK. - TO INCREASE YOUTH LEADERS' KNOWLEDGE OF RISK REDUCTION STRATEGIES, CONFIDENCE IN THEIR ABILITY TO IMPLEMENT THEM, AND WILLINGNESS TO EMPLOY THEM (IF SEXUALLY ACTIVE/SUBSTANCE USING). - TO INCREASE YOUTH LEADERS' ACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICES AND TESTING, AND LAY THE GROUNDWORK FOR AWARENESS OF THEIR OWN SERO-STATUS. - TO INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF YOUTH-SERVING SUBSTANCE MISUSE SERVICE PROVIDERS AND OTHER YOUTH-SERVING HEALTH/SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDERS TO UNDERSTAND CONNECTIONS BETWEEN SEXUAL HEALTH RISK AND SUBSTANCE USE FOR YOUTH AND ADDRESS THESE WITH THE YOUTH THEY SERVE. - TO BUILD CAPACITY LOCALLY TO DELIVER AND AMPLIFY YOUTH-FOCUSED SOCIAL MEDIA MESSAGING THAT REINFORCES HIV AND SUBSTANCE MISUSE RISK AWARENESS AND/OR RISK REDUCTION EMPOWERMENT. RECOGNIZING THE DIVERSITY OF OUR TARGET POPULATION HIFY WILL USE ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES (EBPS) IN OUR WORKSHOP SERIES: BE PROUD! BE RESPONSIBLE!, BEING A RESPONSIBLE TEEN (BART), AND FOCUS ON YOUTH. HIFY WILL ALSO PROVIDE TRAINING TO YOUTH-SERVING PROVIDERS TO BUILD THEIR CAPACITY ON SUBSTANCE MISUSE AND HIV ISSUES. HIFY EXPECTS TO ENGAGE 275 YOUTH LEADERS (35 IN YEAR 1 AND 60 PER YEAR AFTER THAT) AND 180 PROVIDERS (20 IN YEAR 1 AND 40 PER YEAR AFTER THAT) OVER THE COURSE OF THE FIVE YEARS.

SBIR PHASE I: SELECTIVE ION SEPARATION AND RECOVERY FOR WASTEWATER TREATMENT -THE BROADER/COMMERCIAL IMPACTS OF THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) PHASE I PROJECT ARE IN WATER MANAGEMENT AND RESOURCE RECOVERY. CONVENTIONAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT METHODS LACK SOLUTE SELECTIVITY, LEADING TO COSTLY AND ENERGY-INTENSIVE INEFFICIENCIES AND THWARTING EFFORTS TO MITIGATE EMERGING CONTAMINANTS. WASTE STREAMS MAY ALSO CONTAIN VALUABLE RESOURCES THAT COULD GENERATE REVENUE IF RECOVERED. FURTHER, IMPROVED WATER REUSE OPERATIONS ARE NEEDED TO ADDRESS THE GROWING DEMAND FOR CLEAN WATER. THE TECHNOLOGY PRESENTED IN THIS PROJECT TRANSCENDS THE EXISTING PARADIGM BY OFFERING A METHOD FOR THE HIGHLY SELECTIVE SEPARATION OF TARGET SOLUTES FROM WATER SOURCES, CREATING MULTIPLE, DISTINCT IONIC PRODUCTS AND SUBSTANTIALLY DEWATERING THE FEED SOURCE. IN RESULT, THIS TECHNOLOGY MAY BE USED TO SIMULTANEOUSLY REMOVE UNWANTED CONTAMINANTS, RECOVER VALUABLE BYPRODUCTS, AND PRODUCE CLEAN WATER FOR NON-POTABLE REUSE. VARIOUS INDUSTRIES WOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS TECHNOLOGY, BUT THE ULTIMATE AIM IS TO LOWER THE FINANCIAL AND INFRASTRUCTURAL BARRIERS TO ADVANCED TREATMENT AND REUSE FOR ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES. BY SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING THE ENERGY AND MAINTENANCE COSTS OF WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL, AND ENABLING FURTHER COST-RECUPERATION THROUGH RESOURCE RECOVERY, THIS INNOVATION IS POISED TO GREATLY ENHANCE THE VIABILITY OF WATER REUSE, ENSURING THAT ALL COMMUNITIES HAVE EQUITABLE ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER AND HEALTHY ECOSYSTEMS. THE CORE TECHNICAL INNOVATION OF THE PROPOSED TECHNOLOGY LIES IN ITS ABILITY TO SELECTIVELY SEPARATE SPECIFIC IONS FROM HETEROGENEOUS WASTE OR RAW WATER SOURCES; SUCH SELECTIVITY DOES NOT EXIST IN CURRENT WATER TREATMENT PRACTICE. THE TECHNOLOGY FUNCTIONS THROUGH THE STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION OF ENERGY-EFFICIENT ELECTROCHEMICAL PROCESSES. THIS APPROACH SURPASSES EXISTING TREATMENT CONVENTIONS BY NOT ONLY PERFORMING SELECTIVE EXCLUSION, BUT BY SIMULTANEOUSLY GENERATING FOUR DISTINCT, HIGHLY CONCENTRATED PRODUCT STREAMS THAT ARE DIFFERENTIATED BY ION CHARGE AND VALENCE, AS WELL AS AN ADDITIONAL CLEAN WATER STREAM THAT EMERGES DURING PRODUCT CONCENTRATION. THIS NSF SBIR PHASE I PROJECT WILL FOCUS ON THREE MAIN TASKS: OPTIMIZING TECHNICAL DESIGN FOR MAXIMUM SOLUTE SELECTIVITY AND CONCENTRATION, EVALUATING SEPARATION PERFORMANCE WITH REPRESENTATIVE WASTEWATERS FROM THREE KEY INDUSTRIES, AND SCALING UP THE SYSTEM FOR FUTURE PILOT TESTING. EXPERIMENTATION WILL VALIDATE TOTAL CONCENTRATION AND DEWATERING CAPACITIES, BUT INITIAL ESTIMATES SUGGEST PRODUCTS MAY BE CONCENTRATED UP TO 10X THEIR STARTING VALUES AND FEED VOLUME MAY BE REDUCED BY UP TO 88%. EVALUATION WITH DIFFERENT WASTE EFFLUENTS WILL DETERMINE THE TECHNOLOGY?S ADAPTABILITY AND MARKETABILITY IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS. THE SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF PHASE I TESTING WILL LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR FURTHER COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THIS INNOVATIVE CONCEPT. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

RAISE-BOTSWANA: RESEARCH ON AGING, AD/ADRD, AND ITS SOCIAL DETERMINANTS IN BOTSWANA - PROJECT SUMMARY THE RAISE-BOTSWANA PROJECT (RESEARCH ON AGING, AD/ADRD, AND ITS SOCIAL DETERMINANTS IN BOTSWANA) AIMS TO DEVELOP INFRASTRUCTURE FOR AGING AND ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE (AD) AND ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE- RELATED DEMENTIAS (ADRD) RESEARCH IN BOTSWANA, A COUNTRY WITH AN AGING POPULATION AND A HIGH HIV BURDEN. RAISE-BOTSWANA WILL SUPPORT THE CAREER DEVELOPMENT OF DR. LILLIAN OKUI, A RESEARCH SCIENTIST AND EPIDEMIOLOGIST AT A BOTSWANA RESEARCH INSTITUTION, THROUGH PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES AND TRAINING AND MENTORSHIP FROM LOCAL, REGIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL EXPERTS IN PSYCHOLOGY, BIOSTATISTICS, AND EPIDEMIOLOGY OF AGING AND THE HARMONIZED COGNITIVE ASSESSMENT PROTOCOL (HCAP) NETWORK IN KENYA AND SOUTH AFRICA. THE RAISE-BOTSWANA PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOCUSES ON ENHANCING DR. OKUI’S SKILLS IN PROBABILITY- BASED SAMPLING AND EPIDEMIOLOGICAL METHODS FOR AD/ADRD RESEARCH, PROVIDING HANDS-ON TRAINING IN DATA MANAGEMENT, SURVEY IMPLEMENTATION, AND TOOL ADAPTATION. ADDITIONALLY, IT INCLUDES PARTICIPATION IN WEBINARS AND CONFERENCES TO KEEP HER INFORMED ON THE LATEST ADVANCEMENTS IN AGING AND DEMENTIA RESEARCH. RAISE- BOTSWANA WILL LEVERAGE THE 2022 BOTSWANA CENSUS DATASETS AND THE HCAP TO GATHER BASELINE DATA ON THE FEASIBILITY OF POPULATION-BASED RESEARCH FOR AD/ADRD IN BOTSWANA THROUGH THREE KEY AIMS: AIM 1: LEVERAGE THE LATEST CENSUS DATASET TO DEVELOP A SAMPLING FRAME AND INFORM THE STUDY DESIGN FOR POPULATION-BASED AGING AND AD/ADRD RESEARCH IN BOTSWANA. THIS SAMPLING FRAME WILL ENABLE ACCURATE AND REPRESENTATIVE DATA COLLECTION, WHICH IS ESSENTIAL FOR ESTIMATING THE PREVALENCE AND IDENTIFYING RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH AD/ADRD IN BOTSWANA. AIM 2: ADAPT AND TRANSLATE THE HCAP PROTOCOL, RESPONDENT, AND INFORMANT INTERVIEW DETAILS FOR THE BOTSWANA CONTEXT TO ENSURE CULTURAL RELEVANCE AND LINGUISTIC ACCURACY FOR USE IN BOTSWANA. THIS WILL FACILITATE CROSS-NATIONAL COMPARISONS OF COGNITIVE HEALTH AND DEMENTIA. AIM 3: ASSESS THE ACCEPTABILITY AND FEASIBILITY OF CONDUCTING POPULATION-BASED AGING, AD/ADRD SURVEYS THROUGH A PILOT STUDY IN GABORONE, BOTSWANA, TO PROVIDE CRITICAL BASELINE DATA FOR FUTURE LONGITUDINAL STUDIES. IMPLEMENTING RAISE-BOTSWANA WILL ALLOW DR. OKUI TO DEVELOP INTO A NEXT-GENERATION RESEARCHER IN AGING AND AD/ADRD. EXPECTED OUTCOMES INCLUDE A SAMPLING FRAME FOR AD/ADRD RESEARCH, ADAPTED COGNITIVE ASSESSMENT TOOLS, PRELIMINARY DATA FOR AN R01 GRANT APPLICATION, AND ENHANCED CAPACITY FOR CONDUCTING PROBABILITY-BASED SAMPLING AND SURVEY ANALYSIS. THIS RESEARCH WILL LAY THE GROUNDWORK FOR FUTURE STUDIES AND INFORM PUBLIC HEALTH STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS AD/ADRD IN BOTSWANA AND OTHER SUB-SAHARAN AFRICAN COUNTRIES.
