项目摘要

ABSTRACT HIV is more common among underrepresented minority adolescents and young adults (AYA, 13–24 years old) in the United States. Low uptake of HIV prevention services suggests a missed opportunity for implementing evidence-based interventions such as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and sexually transmitted infection testing among this important population. Most research institutions in the United States have limited opportunities for AYA training, mentorship, and capacity building activities. Over the past three years, our multi- disciplinary team organized AYA implementation HIV research as part of ITEST, Innovative Tools for Expanding HIV Self-Testing. This study uses crowdsourcing methods and implementation science strategies to develop innovative HIV self-testing services for AYA. Crowdsourcing has a group of people solve all or part of a problem, then implement exceptional ideas. Our study discovered that crowdsourcing methods could also be used to help identify highly qualified trainees through open calls, build capacity for youth-led research using hackathons, and sustain these benefits through participatory learning communities. These approaches break new ground in HIV training using participatory methods that will help AYA to become junior leaders while building institutional capacity for AYA HIV research. Extending from this strong foundation, we propose the “Stimulating Training and Access to HIV Research Experiences” (STAR) Institute. The project brings together a highly qualified group of research mentors at Saint Louis University, UNC Chapel Hill, Georgia State University, Texas A&M, and Wake Forest University. Specific aims of this project include: 1) identify and recruit underrepresented minority AYA interested in HIV research for STAR Institute; 2) develop crowdsourcing and implementation research capacity at participating US institutions; 3) initiate and sustain enduring AYA research capacity through a digital participatory learning community. Each year we will identify 10 trainees who will join our intensive six-week summer training program and a year-long virtual learning community. The proposed R25 training program complements existing training opportunities and will provide unique resources to build capacity for AYA studies, implementation research, and crowdsourcing.

摘要艾滋病毒在代表性不足的少数民族青少年和年轻人（AYA，13-24岁）中更为常见在美国接受艾滋病毒预防服务的人数少，表明错失了实施基于证据的干预措施，如暴露前预防和性传播感染在这个重要的人群中进行测试。美国大多数研究机构对 AYA培训、指导和能力建设活动的机会。在过去的三年里，我们的多... 学科团队组织AYA实施艾滋病毒研究作为ITEST的一部分，创新工具，扩大艾滋病毒自我检测。本研究使用众包方法和实施科学策略，为AYA开发创新的艾滋病毒自我检测服务。众包有一群人解决所有或部分的一个问题，然后实施特殊的想法。我们的研究发现，众包方法也可以用于通过公开招聘帮助确定高素质的受训人员，利用黑客马拉松，并通过参与式学习社区维持这些好处。这些方法打破了使用参与式方法进行艾滋病毒培训的新领域，这将有助于AYA成为初级领导人，为AYA艾滋病毒研究建立机构能力。在这个坚实的基础上，我们提出了 “促进培训和获得艾滋病毒研究经验”研究所。该项目汇集了格鲁吉亚州查查佩尔山圣刘易斯大学高素质研究导师小组德克萨斯A&M大学和维克森林大学。该项目的具体目标包括：1）识别和招募对星星研究所的艾滋病毒研究感兴趣的代表性不足的少数AYA; 2）发展众包，参与美国机构的实施研究能力; 3）发起并维持持久的AYA研究通过数字参与式学习社区提高能力。每年我们将确定10名学员，我们为期六周的密集暑期培训计划和为期一年的虚拟学习社区。拟议 R25培训计划补充了现有的培训机会，并将提供独特的资源， AYA研究，实施研究和众包的能力。
