JOB ANNOUNCEMENT – PROJECT ASSISTANT

The UNC team has expertise with both behavioral and clinical research and has studied a variety of infectious diseases in men and women from general and key populations.
The UNC-VN was also chosen to conduct a pragmatic implementation trial comparing two implementation approaches for scale-up of the evidence-based intervention (EBI), referred to as SNaP, at 42 study sites, in 10 provinces of Vietnam, considering effectiveness, cost, and the characteristics of HIV test sites achieving successful or unsuccessful implementation. This study is a cluster randomized, controlled implementation trial. The two implementation approaches are the one size fits all Standard Approach arm (SA) and the Tailored Approach arm (TA). The intervention used in the study combines systems navigation and psychosocial counseling for people who inject drugs (PWID), and it is designed to facilitate PWID’s engagement in HIV and substance use care
