2019 National Ending the HIV Epidemic Summit

In September 2019, NIH announced the selection of 65 science-practice partnerships to prepare for more extensive implementation research proposals as part of Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America. Leaders of these projects gathered with federal officials and implementation science experts during a two-day meeting organized by the Third Coast Center for AIDS Research on October 28–29, 2019. The summit provided training in key implementation science concepts and methods, and examples of their application to HIV research.

Recorded presentations are available as a resource to all investigators, practitioners, and policy makers interested in HIV implementation science.
