IeDEA Grant Renewal

US NIH renews the IeDEA global consortium for another 5 years!

Between 2016-2020, IeDEA has published over 500 regional and multiregional papers, making substantial contributions to advancing the fields of HIV-related clinical and social science, epidemiology, and data methods and harmonization. Our 7 regions are ready to implement a new set of innovative research agendas that will leverage the HIV cohort databases we have been building for 15 years and the partnerships we have established with local investigators in 44 countries.

Thanks (and congratulations) to the many people around the world who have helped IeDEA to become a force for inclusive science and collaboration.
