View Award Description

Northwestern/Nigeria Research Training Program in HIV and Malignancies (NN-HAM) - The Northwestern/Nigeria Research Training Program in HIV and Malignancies (NN-HAM) addresses a high priority NIH research area by strengthening clinical research capacity and advancing collaboration between Nigerian and U.S.-based investigators. The program focuses on ending the intersecting burden of HIV and HIV-associated malignancies within LMICs, the United States, and globally. Nigeria provides a uniquely important setting for this training program given its high HIV prevalence and substantial burden of oncogenic viral co-infections linked to cancer risk. The program is supported by a strong multidisciplinary team of U.S. and Nigerian investigators with over 12 years of sustained scientific collaborations. Our trainees have contributed to a supportive institutional research environment that has advanced innovative approaches to cancer screening, biomarker discovery, therapeutic targeting, implementation science, and point-of-care diagnostics with direct economic benefit to the US through improved implementation and access to cost-effective cancer prevention and early detection platforms in low-resource U.S. health settings. Our past training successes in this regard include the network with Northwestern University, University of Lagos, and University of Jos to successfully complete an NCI-funded U54 (Epigenomic Biomarkers of HIV-Associated Cancers in Nigeria, 1U54CA221205); the study on “Vaginal microbiome in Cervical intraepithelial Neoplasia and Cancer, K43TW011416), the NIH/NCI funded implementation science, “West African HPV-based Self-sampling for Cervical Cancer Control and Prevention (U01CA275129), and the NIH/NIBIB funded “Centre for Innovation in Point-of-Care Technologies for HIV/AIDS and Emerging Infectious Diseases at Northwestern University (C-THAN, U54EB027049). These multidisciplinary research collaborations and capacity building efforts have continued to enhance the research capacity of Nigerian investigators to conduct locally relevant research in-country that are translatable and adaptable by US and other high-income countries to improving HIV associated malignancies and outcomes. Over these 12 years, our Nigerian investigators have established an in-country research training curriculum complemented by structured mentorship from U.S.-based faculty to address global and U.S. health priorities. Our program plan is guided by the premise that strengthening capacity in molecular cancer epidemiology, biostatistics, and bioinformatics focused on HIV-associated malignancies will advance understanding of cancer epidemiology and accelerate biomarker-driven mechanistic research. These outputs will inform future preventive and therapeutic strategies aimed at reducing incidence and mortality of HIV-associated cancers globally. The specific training aims are to: 1. train cancer molecular epidemiologists; 2. train master’s degree-level biostatisticians and scientists in medical informatics; and 3. create a multidisciplinary research team capable of performing advanced molecular epidemiology research. We will achieve our goals through training, and mentorship with strong leadership.
