The Implementation Science team at ViiV Healthcare provides funding for several initiatives to support our key focus areas. Click on the links below to learn more.
SIRC is a 501(c)/(3) non-profit organization run by volunteers, that is dedicated to facilitating communication and collaboration between implementation research teams, researchers and community providers across practice areas. ViiV's contribution provides conference support for HIV-focused pre-conference and plenary sessions, in addition to, operational costs.
ViiV Healthcare provides funding for The PROgress Project website. This project focuses on helping patients share information with their doctor about their health, situation, needs, and preferences that may otherwise not be discussed and improving patient provider discussions and relationships. This project is a ViiV Healthcare sponsored research workstream in collaboration with the University of Washington.
ViiV Healthcare provided funding for the development and testing of the PozQoL Scale and for the new PozQoL website.
The PozQoL Scale measures changes in quality of life of people living with HIV. Using PozQoL can help service providers working with people living with HIV better understand their needs. PozQoL is available in 16 languages. The scale was developed because Australian HIV services needed an easier way to measure whether their programs improved people’s quality of life. This website brings together information and resources to make PozQoL more accessible and easier to use.
The Digital Innovation and Implementation Science team at ViiV Healthcare currently funds and provides editorial support for the Positive Series website, a movement by Prevention Access Campaign to address stigma and discrimination. Because no two stories are alike, we funded this website because it provides organizations committed to fighting HIV stigma and HIV, regardless of where they are located in the United States. Downloadable materials to educate and raise public awareness about the benefits of getting to undetectable and staying undetectable are available on the website at no cost.
ViiV Healthcare’s Implementation Science team supports multiple fellowships
That provide training in implementation science methodology, combat health disparities, or fund implementation science research projects. Explore our current fellowships and check back for updates!
ViiV Healthcare and the National Institutes of Health provide funding for the HIV, Infectious Diseases, and Global Health Implementation Research Institute (HIGH-IRI) program based out of Washington University. The HIGH-IRI is a new training program focused on the intersection between Dissemination & Implementation Science and infectious diseases. The field of dissemination & implementation science offers novel and distinctive perspectives on how to understand and overcome these gaps and advance human health. Over two years, the Institute will deliver world-class training and mentorship, and foster professional connections among a group of like-minded, leading-edge researchers who will magnify each other’s impact.
The fellowship will provide comprehensive education to non-infectious disease clinicians, starting with online training that transitions into preceptorship in a clinic that sees a high number of patients. After this, fellows receive funding to start a PrEP clinic within their own practices.
The fellowship is intended for non-infectious disease clinicians in the fields of emergency medicine, family medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, pharmacy practice, primary care and other fields of medicine that don’t traditionally provide HIV prevention care and tools to their patients.
Funded by a grant from ViiV Healthcare, experienced HIV clinicians, researchers and educators credentialed with AAHIVM will serve as mentors who educate and train program fellows. This fellowship is independently managed by AAHIVM.
