Advancing Implementation Science, Ending the HIV Epidemic
Leaders in Implementation Science
The HIV Implementation Science Coordination Initiative (ISCI) provides high-quality technical assistance for Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) funded implementation research (IR) teams and creates opportunities to share generalizable knowledge to help end the HIV epidemic in the United States. Our site includes:
Featured Tools:
Implementation Research Logic Model (IRLM)
The IRLM is a tool that helps combine and organize project frameworks; specify the relationships between constructs across frameworks; and improve the rigor, reproducibility, and transparency of the project.
Implementation Outcomes Crosswalk
The Implementation Outcomes Crosswalk is a tool to help EHE-funded HIV researchers and implementation partners identify and select relevant implementation outcomes for their research projects.
Longitudinal Implementation Strategy Tracking System (LISTS)
LISTS offers a systematic method for documenting, specifying, and tracking the use of implementation strategies in a given project or study, increasing precision and reliability.
