Abstract The HIV epidemic has reached alarming rates in the United States especially within Black communities and is on par with those found in several African countries. HIV directly or indirectly related to men having sex with men is the single largest contributor to HIV infection among Blacks, accounting for nearly half of all cases among Black men. Despite large racial/ethnic disparities in HIV prevalence and risk, just one tested intervention specifically for Black men who have sex with men (MSM) has been published. Furthermore, Black men who have sex with both men and women (MSMW) have been particularly underserved and underrepresented in HIV research. Attention must be lent to address the behavioral, psychological, socio-cultural, and biomedical factors, as well as the racial/ethnic disparities that exist and contribute to HIV infection and transmission among Black MSM and MSMW. This 5-year R13 conference grant proposal entitled, Health, Hope and Healing (H3): A National Conference on HIV among Black MSM and MSMW, will assemble the best minds currently studying HIV/AIDS among Black MSM and MSMW. The H3 conference series, with an annual meeting over five years, aims to advance HIV biobehavioral research, mentor junior investigators, and foster community based participatory collaborations. The three measurable conference outcomes are to: 1) Produce an executive report detailing the long term research, training and policy agenda, highlighting recommendations designed to reduce HIV in Black MSM and MSMW; 2) Produce an executive report detailing successful mentorship of junior investigators; and 3) Develop successful community based participatory research collaboratives, as measured by the submission of at least one joint proposal that operationalizes the research. The H3 Conference series will be among the first to discuss the needs of Black MSM and MSMW within a holistic and socio-cultural paradigm and disseminate research findings and healthcare and policy recommendations for eliminating HIV/AIDS within this population.

摘要 艾滋病毒的流行在美国达到了惊人的速度，特别是在黑人社区，与在几个非洲国家发现的情况相当。与男男性行为直接或间接有关的艾滋病毒是黑人感染艾滋病毒的最大单一因素，占黑人男子所有病例的近一半。尽管艾滋病毒流行率和风险存在很大的种族/民族差异，但只有一种专门针对与男性发生性关系的黑人男性（MSM）的测试干预措施已经公布。此外，与男性和女性发生性关系的黑人男性（MSMW）在艾滋病毒研究中得到的服务和代表性特别不足。必须注意解决行为，心理，社会文化和生物医学因素，以及存在的种族/民族差异，并有助于艾滋病毒感染和黑人男男性行为者和男男性工作者之间的传播。这个为期5年的R13会议赠款提案，题为，健康，希望和愈合（H3）：一个关于艾滋病毒的全国会议在黑人男男性行为者和男男性工作者，将汇集最好的头脑，目前研究艾滋病毒/艾滋病在黑人男男性行为者和男男性工作者。H3系列会议每年举行一次，为期五年，旨在推进艾滋病毒生物行为研究，指导初级研究人员，并促进基于社区的参与式合作。三个可衡量的会议成果是：1）编写一份执行报告，详细说明长期研究，培训和政策议程，强调旨在减少黑人男男性行为者和男男性工作者艾滋病毒的建议; 2）编写一份执行报告，详细说明初级调查人员的成功指导; 3）发展成功的社区参与式研究合作，通过提交至少一份实施研究的联合提案来衡量。H3会议系列将是第一次讨论黑人男男性行为者和男男性工作者在整体和社会文化范式中的需求，并传播研究成果和医疗保健和政策建议，以消除这一人群中的艾滋病毒/艾滋病。
