View Award Description

Multidisciplinary NeuroAIDS Research and Training Program to Improve HIV Outcomes in Nigeria and Africa - HIV-related brain disorders (NeuroAIDS), including psychological, emotional, and social well-being, neurocognitive, and neurological problems, remain common globally. Over the past 10 years, the Multidisciplinary NeuroAIDS Research and Training Program to Improve HIV Outcomes has developed new NeuroAIDS research capacity at the University of Ibadan, Nigeria (UI) in three interacting cores: the Psychological, Emotional, and Social Well-Being Core, Translational and Clinical Sciences Core, and the Neuropsychological Infrastructure Core. Our overarching goal in the current 5 years of this training program is to bridge the residual gaps necessary for UI to become a Center of Excellence for NeuroAIDS Research, not only for Nigeria but for Africa. This will require 1) developing UI’s capacity in two previously unaddressed NeuroAIDS research areas of high public health significance, 2) increasing the local mass of externally funded NeuroAIDS researchers and mentors, and 3) continuing the progressive transfer of the program’s leadership to UI. The strategic approach capitalizes on the momentum from our NICHD-funded research, iCARE Nigeria (UG3/UH3HD096920; MPIs: Babafemi Taiwo and Robert Garofalo), through which we have built trust with Nigeria’s stigmatized special populations with high rates of HIV. We will also leverage previously untapped, outstanding psychological, emotional, and social well-being and stroke research resources at UI. Specific aims have been articulated. Aim 1a is focused on special populations with high rates of HIV and psychological, emotional, and social well-being. Here, we will add new trainees to the existing Psychological, Emotional, and Social Well-Being Core and develop expertise in psychological, emotional, and social well-being research and biobehavioral interventions and strategies to improve the health outcomes of special populations with high rates of HIV and living with or predisposed to developing HIV. Training will span clinical, epidemiological, sociobehavioral, network, and implementation science. We will enroll 2 postdoctoral faculty members (physicians or PhDs) each 2.5 years of the grant cycle, mainly from psychiatry or medical social science into customized 2-year curricula that include tailored didactics, skill building, and mentored research. In Aim 1b, we will tackle stroke in people living with HIV (PLWH) by adding new trainees to the Clinical and Translational Sciences Core to unravel the local epidemiology, mechanisms, and interventions for stroke among PLWH. One postdoctoral faculty per year will be enrolled from neurology, medicine, radiology, or other fields into customized 2-year curricula as in Aim 1a. Aim 2 is to develop more NeuroAIDS leaders in UI from the best early-career investigators among those we have trained previously AND by attracting established investigators from other fields to NeuroAIDS. Here, we will implement “Extended Protected Time” for two competitively selected previous trainees per year and an innovative “Mentor the Mentor” initiative. In Aim 3, we will advance our commitment to transfer program ownership and management to UI. Thus, we will implement an MPI structure with UI co-leadership and new Ibadan NeuroAIDS Grant Writers Coaching Groups. Finally, UI will lead a regional NeuroAIDS Week every 2-3 years to extend the program’s impact beyond UI and cement UI’s capacity and capability as a Center of Excellence for NeuroAIDS research and capacity development in Africa.
