HOMELESS PREVENTION

IMPROVING PREP OUTCOMES AMONG PREGNANT WOMEN IN BOTSWANA WITH AN INTEGRATED STI TESTING AND PREP DELIVERY MODEL - HIV INCIDENCE REMAINS HIGH FOR WOMEN IN SOUTHERN AFRICA AND HIV ACQUISITION RISK DOUBLES DURING PREGNANCY AND POSTPARTUM COMPARED TO NON-PREGNANT PERIODS. HIV PRE-EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS (PREP) IS PROMISING, WITH ORAL PREP PILLS AND THE DAPIVIRINE VAGINAL RING (DPV-VR) RECOMMENDED BY WHO AND NATIONAL HIV PROGRAMS. YET, RESEARCH TO IMPROVE PREP USE IN PREGNANT AND POSTPARTUM WOMEN LAGS BEHIND OTHER POPULATIONS, CREATING INEQUITABLE PREP ACCESS DURING PERIODS OF HIGH HIV RISK. PREP DELIVERY INTEGRATED INTO ANTENATAL CARE YIELDS HIGH ORAL PREP UPTAKE AMONG WOMEN WITH KNOWN HIV RISK, THOUGH DISCONTINUATION AND SUB-OPTIMAL ADHERENCE ARE COMMON. LOW PERCEIVED HIV RISK, PILL BURDEN, SIDE EFFECTS THAT OVERLAP WITH PREGNANCY SYMPTOMS (E.G., NAUSEA), AND INFANT SAFETY CONCERNS ARE KEY REASONS FOR DECLINING AND DISCONTINUING ORAL PREP DURING PREGNANCY. REFINING RISK PERCEPTION WITH DIAGNOSTIC TESTING FOR SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS (STIS) MAY INCREASE PREP UPTAKE, YET SYNDROMIC STI MANAGEMENT PERSISTS AS STANDARD OF CARE IN THE REGION. PILL BURDEN COULD BE ADDRESSED BY OFFERING DPV-VR WHICH ALSO HAS LESS SYSTEMIC SIDE EFFECTS, LIKE NAUSEA. BOLSTERING THE SAFETY PROFILE OF DPV-VR USE IN PREGNANCY COULD INFORM MESSAGING FOR PREP CHOICES AND SCALE-UP IN ANTENATAL CARE. STRATEGIES TO OPTIMIZE PREP USE IN PREGNANCY WITH RIGOROUS SAFETY EVALUATION ARE NEEDED TO ADVANCE DELIVERY OF EXPANDED PREP OPTIONS. OUR TEAM FOUND HIGH STI PREVALENCE AMONG PREGNANT WOMEN IN BOTSWANA, MAKING ANTENATAL STI TESTING A POTENTIALLY HIGH-YIELD STRATEGY IN THIS SETTING. BOTSWANA IS IDEAL FOR EXPANDING PREP OPTIONS BEYOND ORAL PILLS IN ANTENATAL CARE AND CO-DELIVERING STI TESTING GIVEN ITS HIGH ANTENATAL CARE COVERAGE, COMMITMENT TO IMPROVE THE HIV/STI CARE CASCADES, AND PROOF-OF-CONCEPT DATA FOR ANTENATAL STI TESTING. IN COLLABORATION WITH THE BOTSWANA MINISTRY OF HEALTH, WE PROPOSE A RANDOMIZED TRIAL TO DETERMINE THE EFFECT OF CO-OFFERING STI TESTING WITH ENHANCED PREP OPTIONS ON PREP USE IN PREGNANCY THROUGH POSTPARTUM. WE WILL ALSO PROSPECTIVELY GATHER SAFETY DATA AND IMPLEMENTATION OUTCOMES TO EXPEDITE TRANSLATION INTO PRACTICE. OUR OVERARCHING HYPOTHESIS IS THAT STI TESTING WITH EXPANDED PREP OPTIONS WILL IMPROVE PREP USE IN PREGNANCY AND LACTATION, WILL BE SAFE, AND WILL BE ACCEPTABLE IN ANTENATAL CARE. AIM 1 WILL CONDUCT A RANDOMIZED TRIAL AMONG WOMEN WITHOUT HIV SEEKING ANTENATAL CARE AT PUBLIC CLINICS IN BOTSWANA TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE ADDITION OF STI TESTING TO ANTENATAL PREP DELIVERY WITH EXPANDED PREP OPTIONS IMPROVES THE PROPORTION OF PREGNANT WOMEN WHO INITIATE PREP WHEN OFFERED, PERSIST WITH USE AT 9 MONTHS POSTPARTUM AFTER SELF-SELECTING DAILY ORAL PREP OR THE DPV-VR, AND ADHERE (QUANTIFIED BY DRUG LEVELS). AIM 2 OF THIS STUDY WILL UTILIZE HAIR SAMPLES COLLECTED FROM MOTHER-INFANT PAIRS ENROLLED IN AIM 1 TO QUANTIFY DPV EXPOSURE AND TO PROSPECTIVELY EVALUATE PREGNANCY AND INFANT SAFETY OUTCOMES FOLLOWING DPV EXPOSURE. AIM 3 WILL ASSESS IMPLEMENTATION OUTCOMES TO INFORM SCALE UP OF INTEGRATING STI TESTING AND THE DPV- VR INTO ANTENATAL CARE. OUR STUDY IS DESIGNED TO INFORM STI TESTING AND DPV-VR DELIVERY FOR PREGNANT WOMEN AND PROVIDE NECESSARY EVIDENCE TO INFORM POLICY DECISIONS IN BOTSWANA AND OTHER HIV HIGH-BURDEN SETTINGS.

CHP MEETS THE FUNDING PREFERENCE, AS THE CURRENT PROGRAM PRIMARILY SERVES INDIVIDUALS FROM DISADVANTAGED BACKGROUNDS AND MOST PROGRAM COMPLETERS/GRADUATES PRACTICED IN FEDERALLY-DESIGNATED MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED AREAS (MUAS), MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES OR HPSAS, OR SERVED MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS (MUPS). CHP IS REQUESTING A TOTAL OF $1,115,232.24 FOR THE THREE-YEAR PROJECT PERIOD (BETWEEN $370,340 AND $373,162 PER YEAR). GRANT FUNDS WILL BE USED TO COVER SALARY AND FRINGE FOR THE TWO KEY STAFF, A $7,500 STIPEND FOR EVERY TRAINEE (30 TRAINEES PER YEAR), REIMBURSEMENT FOR TRAINEES FOR TRAVEL, CONSULTANT SERVICES FOR A PROJECT MANAGER TO SUPPORT THE PROJECT DIRECTOR, AND EMPLOYER HIRING/HUMAN RESOURCES COSTS TO HELP POTENTIAL EMPLOYERS ESTABLISH PATHWAYS TO EMPLOYMENT AFTER TRAINEES COMPLETE THEIR FIELD PLACEMENT AND/OR APPRENTICESHIP.

(LHP) IS A FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTHCARE CENTER (FQHC). LHP WAS INCORPORATED AS A 501C(3) NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION IN 1998 AND WAS PART OF COPLEY HEALTH SYSTEMS; A NETWORK THAT INCLUDED A CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL. SUBSEQUENTLY, LHP BECAME AN INDEPENDENT NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION IN 2005. IN MARCH OF 2006 LHP BECAME A FQHC-LOOK-ALIKE AND EVENTUALLY RECEIVED GRANT STATUS AS AN FQHC IN AUGUST OF 2008. LHP BECAME A FQHC TO SERVE THE RURAL POPULATION BASED ON THE NEEDS OF THE RESIDENTS OF LAMOILLE COUNTY. SINCE INCEPTION, LHP HAS NOT WAVERED FROM ITS’ MISSION OR HESITATED WHEN FACED WITH THE CHALLENGE OF MEETING THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF SERVICE AREA RESIDENTS. LHP SERVES LAMOILLE COUNTY, VERMONT. SERVICES ARE PRIMARILY LOCATED IN MORRISVILLE WITH A FAMILY PRACTICE SITE IN STOWE. SERVICE LOCATIONS INCLUDE THE LAMOILLE HEALTH FAMILY MEDICINE - MORRISVILLE, LAMOILLE HEALTH FAMILY DENTISTRY, LAMOILLE HEALTH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS, LAMOILLE HEALTH FAMILY MEDICINE – STOWE, AND JOHNSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

THE RURAL COUNTY HAS A TOTAL AREA OF 462.25 SQUARE MILES AND IS THE SECOND SMALLEST COUNTY IN VERMONT IN AREA. AVAILABILITY AND ACCESSIBILITY TO MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER SERVICES IS LIMITED THROUGHOUT THE SERVICE AREA, ESPECIALLY AFFORDABLE CARE FOR THOSE WITH LIMITED FINANCIAL RESOURCES. OFTEN, THERE IS A STIGMA ATTACHED TO MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE AS WELL AS A LACK OF AWARENESS AND UNDERSTANDING OF THESE DISORDERS. DUE TO LACK OF LOCAL MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, PATIENTS EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTY GETTING A TIMELY APPOINTMENT, AND SERVICES ARE COSTLY, HINDERING PATIENTS FROM OBTAINING ESSENTIAL SERVICES. IF SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE, MOST TIMES PATIENTS ARE UNAWARE OF THE MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH BENEFITS THEIR HEALTH INSURANCE PLANS OFFER. LHP PROPOSES ACTIVITIES TO ACHIEVE THE BHSE OBJECTIVES. WITH THE PROPOSED MH/SUD CARE TEAM IN PLACE, LHP COMMITS TO THESE MEASURES BEING ATTAINABLE BY DECEMBER 31, 2025. BASED ON HISTORICAL MH/SUD INSIGHTS, A REALISTIC APPROACH WAS UTILIZED TO FORMULATE ACHIEVABLE FOLLOWING CALENDAR YEAR 2025 ESTIMATES.

FY 2024 BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICE EXPANSION - COMMUNITY HEALTH PARTNERSHIP OF ILLINOIS (CHP) IS A FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTER (FQHC) WITH A STEADFAST COMMITMENT TO ITS MISSION. FOR OVER 50 YEARS, WE HAVE BEEN BUILDING AND DELIVERING QUALITY, CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE HEALTH CARE TO OUR PATIENTS, CAREGIVERS, AND COMMUNITIES. SINCE OUR INCEPTION, WE HAVE STRIVED TO MEET THE HEALTH NEEDS OF MIGRANT AND SEASONAL AGRICULTURAL WORKERS (MSAWS). IN 2020, WE EXPANDED OUR OUTREACH AND SERVICES TO OTHER LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS LIVING IN RURAL COMMUNITIES IN THE SERVICE AREA. CHP EMPOWERS INDIVIDUALS, INCLUDING THE UNINSURED, UNDERSERVED, AND MSAWS, TO ATTAIN THEIR BEST HEALTH. TODAY, CHP IS THE PRIMARY SAFETY-NET PROVIDER FOR MSAWS AND MEDICALLY VULNERABLE NORTH AND CENTRAL ILLINOIS POPULATIONS. OUR NETWORK COMPRISES SEVEN BRICK-AND-MORTAR HEALTH CENTERS, FOUR DENTAL SITES, TWO MOBILE MEDICAL/DENTAL CLINICS, AND MULTIPLE OUTREACH SITES ACROSS RURAL AND URBAN COMMUNITIES. ALL CHP’S HEALTH CENTER SITES ARE STRATEGICALLY LOCATED TO RESPOND TO THE PRIMARY CARE NEEDS OF THE MIGRANT POPULATION AND LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS IN CONVENIENT ACCESSIBLE LOCATIONS. CHP’S SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE TO ALL REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. CHP SERVES A VAST GEOGRAPHICAL AREA ACROSS NORTHERN AND CENTRAL ILLINOIS, INCLUDING SIX COUNTIES: KANKAKEE, CHAMPAIGN, KANE, LASALLE, PEORIA, AND MCHENRY. ALL SIX COUNTIES ARE FEDERALLY DESIGNATED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SHORTAGE AREAS (HPSAS) BASED ON LOW CAPACITY TO ADDRESS THE PRIMARY CARE, ORAL HEALTH CARE, AND MENTAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS OF THE COUNTIES. THE SERVICE AREA INCLUDES 224 FARMS WITH MORE THAN 8,300 WORKERS, WITH MORE THAN TWO-THIRDS SEASONAL WORKERS. THE MSAW POPULATION FACES MANY CHALLENGES AND BARRIERS TO ACCESSING CARE, INCLUDING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. CHP’S OUTREACH INITIATIVE, PROMOTORES DE SALUD, PROVIDES IMPACTFUL OUTREACH AND CONNECTION TO NEEDED SERVICES FOR WORKERS AND THEIR FAMILIES, WHERE MANY (65%) NEED LANGUAGE SUPPORT. IN 2021, C HP ADDED A COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER AND A PATIENT HEALTH NAVIGATOR PROGRAM TO BETTER SUPPORT AND ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF ITS COMMUNITY RESIDENTS. THE TARGET POPULATION EXPERIENCES A WIDE RANGE OF HEALTHCARE NEEDS, INCLUDING CHRONIC CONDITIONS AND SIGNIFICANT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES. THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS OF OUR TARGET POPULATION IN THE SERVICE AREA ARE WELL-DOCUMENTED FOR BOTH MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS. CHP’S MENTAL HEALTH HPSA SCORE IS 19, REPRESENTING A SIGNIFICANT NEED FOR ACCESSIBLE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. FINDINGS FROM A 2021 ILLINOIS RURAL HEALTH SUMMIT IDENTIFY SIGNIFICANT SHORTAGES OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDERS AT CRISIS LEVELS ACROSS RURAL ILLINOIS, INCLUDING CHP COUNTIES. CHP IS REQUESTING FUNDING TO ESTABLISH INTEGRATED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES USING A HUB AND SPOKE MODEL ACROSS ITS NETWORK OF SEVEN HEALTH CENTER SITES. THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL INCLUDE THE NECESSARY FUNDING TO INVEST IN PROVIDER CAPACITY AND ONE-TIME INVESTMENTS INTO FACILITY ENHANCEMENT TO OFFER EXPANDED MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER SERVICES FOR RESIDENTS. WITH HRSA FUNDING, CHP WILL ADD BEHAVIORAL HEALTH STAFFING, INCLUDING 4.5 FTE THERAPISTS (LCSWS OR LCPCS), A BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DIRECTOR, A BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COORDINATOR, A PART-TIME PSYCHIATRIC NURSE PRACTITIONER, AND A PART-TIME PSYCHIATRIST. THE REQUESTED STAFF WILL SUPPORT EXPANDED SERVICES BASED ON THE PRIMARY CARE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH MODEL (PCBH). THIS EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACH TO PRIMARY CARE INTEGRATES BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES INTO PRIMARY CARE SETTINGS TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE AND HOLISTIC CARE TO OUR PATIENTS. CHP REQUESTS ONE-TIME SUPPORT TO UPDATE THREE (3) HEALTH CENTER SITES TO ACCOMMODATE EXPANDED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICE DELIVERY. THE PROPOSED ADDITIONAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH STAFFING PLUS ONE-TIME INVESTMENTS IN OUR FACILITIES WILL SERVE AS A CATALYST TO PROVIDE CRITICAL MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER SERVICES FOR SERVICE AREA RESIDENTS.

DR MOYO’S 5-YEAR CAREER DEVELOPMENT PLAN IS FOCUSED ON THREE KEY AREAS: PHYLOGENETICS, EPIDEMIOLOGY AND BIOSTATISTICS; CROSS-SECTIONAL INCIDENCE AND IMPLEMENTATION; AND HIV CURE & CHARACTERIZATION OF EARLY FOUNDER VIRUSES, AND SARS-COV-2 GENOMICS. IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE HIS SHORT- AND MEDIUM-TERM CAREER OBJECTIVES HE SEEKS TO: A) DEVELOP ADVANCED METHODOLOGIC AND ANALYTIC SKILLS IN MOLECULAR EPIDEMIOLOGY, PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS AND BIOINFORMATICS; B) EXPAND LABORATORY EXPERTISE IN REAL-TIME HIGH-THROUGHPUT NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING AND ACCURATE AND RELIABLE QUANTIFICATION OF PROVIRAL RESERVOIRS FOR ADVANCING HIV CURE STUDIES, AND C) STRENGTHEN LEADERSHIP ABILITIES PARTICULARLY IN MANAGING LARGE SCIENTIFIC PROJECTS, POPULATION-LEVEL SURVEYS, AND DIVERSE RESEARCH TEAMS WITH EXPERTISE IN DIFFERENT FIELDS, ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND STUDENT RESEARCH SUPERVISION. TRAINING ACTIVITIES WILL ENCOMPASS FORMAL TRAINING AND COURSEWORK, PRACTICAL APPLICATION THROUGH THE PROPOSED RESEARCH PROJECT, AND DIRECT MENTORSHIP FROM MY HIGHLY EXPERIENCED MENTORSHIP AND ADVISORY TEAM. THESE ACTIVITIES WILL DRAW ON THE STRENGTHS OF THE MENTORSHIP TEAM AND LEADING RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS WITH STRONG COLLABORATIVE TIES AND HAVE A RECORD OF MENTORING YOUNG INVESTIGATORS TO R01 AND INDEPENDENCE. RESEARCH: THE STUDY AIMS TO INTRODUCE AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO ESTIMATING HIV INCIDENCE, WHICH IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR NATIONAL HIV PROGRAMS / PUBLIC HEALTH, AND ALSO FOR HIV PREVENTION RESEARCH, BUT CAN BE EXPENSIVE AND CHALLENGING TO DO. THE SPECIFIC AIMS ARE: 1) TO ASSESS ADJUSTED VIRAL DIVERSITY AS A POTENTIAL BIOMARKER OF HIV INCIDENCE. 2) TO REFINE RESULTS OF SEROLOGICAL SCREENING IN SUBSETS OF TRUE- AND FALSE-RECENT CASES, AND PATIENTS WITH ESTABLISHED INFECTION (ART-NAÏVE AND ON ART), BY ADJUSTED VIRAL DIVERSITY. WE WILL TEST WHETHER VIRAL DIVERSITY WITHIN THE MOST INFORMATIVE REGIONS ACROSS THE HIV-1C GENOME ADJUSTED FOR MULTIPLICITY OF TRANSMISSION, RECOMBINATION, AND LEVEL OF VIRAL REPLICATION COULD BE USED TO REFINE THE RESULTS OF SEROLOGICAL SCREENING AND IMPROVE SPECIFICITY AND SENSITIVITY. WE EXPECT THAT THE ADJUSTED VIRAL DIVERSITY WITHIN THE MOST INFORMATIVE REGIONS WILL INCREASE SPECIFICITY AND SENSITIVITY IN ESTIMATION OF HIV INCIDENCE WITHIN THE 4 SUBSETS OF INDIVIDUALS TARGETED IN THIS AIM TO =95%. ESTABLISHING A COST-EFFECTIVE ALGORITHM TO ESTIMATE INCIDENCE IS OF CRITICAL PUBLIC HEALTH IMPORTANCE IN LOW RESOURCE SETTINGS.

COMMUNITY PROJECT FUNDING/CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING - CONSTRUCTION

ALCOHOL, TOBACCO AND OTHER DRUG COMMUNITY BASED PREVENTION

DEVELOPING BOTSWANA LABORATORY CAPACITY IN HIV GENOMICS AND HIV CURE - PROJECT SUMMARY BOTSWANA HAS BEEN ONE OF THE COUNTRIES MOST AFFECTED BY HIV-1 AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN THE TOP 3 COUNTRIES BY HIV-1 PREVALENCE FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS. THE COUNTRY HAS RESPONDED GALLANTLY BY PROVIDING FREE ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY (ART) TO PERSONS LIVING WITH HIV-1 (PLWH) IN 2002 AND AN AGGRESSIVE COMBINATION OF PREVENTION STRATEGIES. THIS HAS RESULTED IN REDUCED HIV-1 INCIDENCE AND ASSOCIATED MORTALITY AND THE COUNTRY WAS THE THIRD GLOBALLY TO REACH THE UNAIDS 95-95-95 TARGETS OF HIV-1 DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT, AND VIRAL SUPPRESSION. SINCE ITS INCEPTION IN 1996, THE BOTSWANA HARVARD AIDS INSTITUTE PARTNERSHIP (BHP) HAS CONDUCTED INVESTIGATOR-INITIATED CLINICAL TRIALS, OBSERVATIONAL AND EPIDEMIOLOGIC STUDIES, LABORATORY-BASED STUDIES, AND IMPLEMENTATION SCIENCE RESEARCH. BHP LABORATORY ALSO CARRIES OUT MOLECULAR VIROLOGY RESEARCH ON HIV AND THIS RESEARCH HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZING HIV-1 SUBTYPE C, WHICH PREDOMINATES IN BOTSWANA AND SOUTHERN AFRICA. WE DRAW UPON THE DEPTH AND BREADTH OF THE EXPERIENCE GAINED OVER MORE THAN 2 DECADES OF INVESTIGATOR-INITIATED RESEARCH, TRAINING, AND CAPACITY BUILDING TO INCREASE ACCESS TO HIV-1 GENOMICS TRAINING. SINCE 2017, WE HAVE INVESTED IN IMPLEMENTING PATHOGEN AGNOSTIC NEXT- GENERATION SEQUENCING WHICH WAS CRITICAL IN THE FIRST SEQUENCING OF THE SARS-COV-2 OMICRON VARIANT OF CONCERN IN BOTSWANA. WORKING WITH OUR COLLABORATORS WE HAVE ALSO ESTABLISHED COHORTS OF VERY EARLY TREATED INFANTS AND ADOLESCENTS FOR UNDERSTANDING HIV-1 RESERVOIRS. WE, THEREFORE, AIM THROUGH THIS APPLICATION TO STRENGTHEN BHP IN HIV-1 GENOMICS AND MOLECULAR VIROLOGY CAPACITY IN BOTSWANA AND INCREASE ACCESS TO PATHOGEN GENOMICS IN THE SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA REGION AS A CENTER OF EXCELLENCE. THE CAPACITY DEVELOPED HERE WILL BE CROSSCUTTING FOR VIROLOGIC STUDIES AND WILL THUS BE INSTRUMENTAL IN BHP LAB’S CONTINUED DIVERSIFICATION INTO RESEARCH ON OTHER EMERGING PATHOGENS OF GLOBAL PUBLIC HEALTH INTEREST. TO ACHIEVE THIS, WE AIM TO 1) DEVELOP AND ADVANCE BHP AS AN HIV-1 GENOMICS REGIONAL CENTER OF EXCELLENCE. WE WILL LEVERAGE THE EXPERTISE IN PATHOGEN GENOMICS DEVELOPED OVER THE PAST 20 YEARS TO FACILITATE CAPACITY BUILDING BY HOSTING COURSES IN HIV-1 SEQUENCING, BIOINFORMATIC ANALYSIS, AND SEQUENCE DATA INTERPRETATION. BUILDING ON OUR COLLABORATION WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF BOTSWANA, HARVARD T.H. CHAN SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH (HSPH), AND THE RAGON INSTITUTE OF MGH, MIT & HARVARD, WE WILL TARGET STUDENTS AND FACULTY FROM LOCAL AND REGIONAL INSTITUTIONS FOR THE TRAINING. WE WILL FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIV GENOMICS, MAKE THEM ACCESSIBLE TO LOCAL UNIVERSITIES AND OTHER COUNTRIES IN THE REGION, AND 2) TO ESTABLISH HIV-1 RESERVOIR ASSAYS IN SUPPORT OF THE ONGOING AND PLANNED HIV-1 CURE STUDIES AT BHP. WE PLAN TO SET UP ASSAYS FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF HIV-1 RESERVOIRS IN PLWH IN BOTSWANA. LABORATORY SCIENTISTS WILL BE TRAINED ON A NUMBER OF THESE ASSAYS AT THE COLLABORATOR’S LABORATORY IN BOSTON (RAGON INSTITUTE OF MGH, MIT & HARVARD). WE WILL ALSO TRAIN AND ESTABLISH CAPACITY FOR THE BIOINFORMATIC ANALYSIS FOR HIV-1 RESERVOIR CHARACTERIZATION. 1

FINDING A PATHWAY TO HIV CURE AMONG ADOLESCENTS ON LONG-STANDING ART IN BOTSWANA THROUGH RESERVOIR ANALYSIS, ANALYTIC TREATMENT INTERRUPTION, AND BIOMARKER ASSESSMENT - ABSTRACT ADOLESCENTS LIVING WITH HIV-1, MANY OF WHOM BEGAN ANTIRETROVIRAL TREATMENT (ART) IN EARLY LIFE, ARE AN IDEAL GROUP TO BENEFIT FROM NOVEL HIV-1 TREATMENT APPROACHES AND CURATIVE STRATEGIES. HOWEVER, A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF HIV-1 PERSISTENCE INTO ADOLESCENCE FOLLOWING CONTINUOUS ART IN CHILDHOOD IS CRITICAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF EFFECTIVE CURE STRATEGIES. IN THIS K43 APPLICATION, I PROPOSE TO DEVELOP AND GET TRAINED ON LABORATORY TECHNIQUES AND NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING TECHNIQUES TO ADVANCE AN HIV-1 CURE RESEARCH PROGRAM IN BOTSWANA WITH SPECIFIC AIMS TO 1) FIRST IDENTIFY ADOLESCENTS WITH LOW RESERVOIR WITHOUT DETECTABLE INTACT VIRUS (TYPE I CONTROLLERS) OR THOSE WITH A BLOCKED AND LOCKED RESERVOIR PROFILE (WITH DETECTABLE INTACT PROVIRUSES WITH NON-GENIC CHROMOSOMAL INTEGRATION (TYPE II CONTROLLERS) FROM A COHORT OF ADOLESCENTS WHO WERE PERINATALLY INFECTED WITH HIV-1 AND HAVING BEEN ON ART SINCE THE FIRST 2 YEARS OF LIFE. 2) EVALUATE HOW THE RESERVOIR CHANGES OVER TIME IN THE SAME ADOLESCENT COHORT LIVING WITH HIV-1C WHILE FOR THOSE WITH ‘BLOCKED AND LOCKED’ RESERVOIR PROFILE, IF THEY AGREE, I WILL ENROLL THEM INTO THE TATELO PLUS ATI STUDY (U01AI179561) TO TEST THE HYPOTHESIS THAT THOSE WITH A ‘BLOCKED AND LOCKED’ RESERVOIR PROFILE (TYPE II) MAY BE POST-TREATMENT CONTROLLERS AND EVALUATE HOW THEIR RESERVOIR EVOLVES PRE AND POST ATI; AND 3) IDENTIFY BIOMARKERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR TYPE I OR TYPE II CONTROL. I AM ORIGINALLY FROM BOTSWANA AND I HOLD A PHD IN IMMUNOLOGY AND VIROLOGY, MASTER’S DEGREE IN IMMUNOLOGY, AND A BACHELOR’S DEGREE IN MEDICAL MICROBIOLOGY. I COMPLETED MY POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP AT HARVARD T H CHAN SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND THE RAGON INSTITUTE IN 2022 AND HAVE NOW RETURNED TO MY HOME COUNTRY BOTSWANA, WHERE I AM IN THE PROCESS OF SETTING UP AN ADOLESCENT HIV-1 CURE RESEARCH PROGRAM AND PLANNING TO BECOME AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATOR AT THE BOTSWANA HARVARD HEALTH PARTNERSHIP. THIS PROPOSAL WILL MOST IMPORTANTLY SUPPORT MY MENTORED CAREER DEVELOPMENT AND ASSIST ME ADVANCE THE HIV CURE RESEARCH IN BOTSWANA.

CONTACT PHONE NUMBER(S): (802) 888-0900 ? EMAIL ADDRESS: SMAY@LAMOILLEHEALTHPARTNERS.ORG ? WEBSITE ADDRESS: HTTPS://WWW.LAMOILLEHEALTHPARTNERS.ORG/ ? FEDERAL REQUEST: CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING: NON-CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS (HRSA-22-135), $200,000 ? SERVICE AREA: LAMOILLE COUNTY, STATE: VT LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS, INC. IS A FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTHCARE CENTER (FQHC) AND WAS INCORPORATED AS A 501C(3) NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION IN 1998 AND WAS PART OF COPLEY HEALTH SYSTEMS; A NETWORK THAT INCLUDED A CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL. SUBSEQUENTLY, LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS BECAME AN INDEPENDENT NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION IN 2005. IN MARCH OF 2006 LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS BECAME A FQHC-LOOK-ALIKE AND EVENTUALLY RECEIVED GRANT STATUS AS AN FQHC IN AUGUST OF 2008. LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS BECAME A FQHC TO SERVE THE RURAL POPULATION BASED ON THE NEEDS OF THE RESIDENTS OF LAMOILLE COUNTY. SINCE INCEPTION, LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS HAS NOT WAVERED FROM ITS’ MISSION OR HESITATED WHEN FACED WITH THE CHALLENGE OF MEETING THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF SERVICE AREA RESIDENTS. LAMOILLE COUNTY, LOCATED IN MOUNTAINOUS NORTHERN VERMONT, HAS A POPULATION OF 25,300 AND IS ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING COUNTIES IN VERMONT. THE COUNTY HAS A TOTAL AREA OF 458.8 SQUARE MILES AND IS THE SECOND SMALLEST COUNTY IN VERMONT IN AREA. LAMOILLE COUNTY IS RURAL WITH A POPULATION DENSITY OF 53.3 PEOPLE PER SQUARE MILE, IS DESIGNATED AS A MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED AREA/MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATION AND A HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SHORTAGE AREA. VERMONT’S MEDICAID DATA CONTRIBUTE TO THE STORY THAT LAMOILLE’S CHILDREN ARE FALLING THROUGH THE WELL-CHILD CRACKS. THE MORRISVILLE REGION IS THE NEXT TO LOWEST WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER AREAS OF THE STATE WHEN IT COMES TO WELL-CHILD VISITS. MORRISVILLE REGION IS THE LOWEST IN THE STATE FOR ADOLESCENT WELL-CHILD VISITS. THROUGH THIS HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM SERVICE EXPANSION OPPORTUNITY, LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS WOULD ENHANCE ACCESS TO MEDICAL AND MENTAL/BEHAVIORAL HEALTH THROUGH ON-SITE AND MOBILE SCHOOL-BASED SERVICE SITE LOCATIONS. LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS’ STRATEGIC VISION IS TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE BY BRINGING SERVICES TO SERVICE AREA RESIDENTS, PARTICULARLY TO THOSE TOWN ON THE WESTERN SIDE OF OUR COUNTY WITH THIS FUNDING INITIATIVE. THESE COMMUNITIES ARE EXPERIENCING SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CHALLENGES AS WELL AS HAVING TO TRAVEL MORE THAN FORTY MINUTES TO ACCESS HEALTHCARE SERVICES AT ANY OF OUR LOCATIONS AND THE HOSPITAL. THE JOHNSON COMMUNITY HEALTH PROJECT BRINGS CORE PRIMARY CARE SERVICES, PEDIATRICS/ORAL HEALTH/MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, TO A COMMUNITY EXPERIENCING SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CHALLENGES THAT HAVE CREATED A BARRIER TO ACCESSING SERVICES. LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS HAS PARTNERED TO ESTABLISH SERVICES WITH THE JOHNSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TO REACH STUDENTS. THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IS A HUB IN THE COMMUNITY AND AN IDEAL LOCATION TO ESTABLISH PRIMARY CARE SERVICES. LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNERS WILL ALSO ESTABLISH A NEW SITE LOCATED DOWNTOWN IN JOHNSON. BETWEEN THE TWO SERVICE DELIVERY SITES THERE WILL BE A FULL-SERVICE FAMILY DENTISTRY OPERATORY, PRIMARY CARE MEDICAL, PEDIATRIC EXAM SPACE, MENTAL HEALTH CONSULT ROOM ALONG WITH LAMOILLE HEALTH PARTNER'S COMMUNITY INTEGRATION TEAM. THESE CLINICAL TEAMS WILL PARTNER WITH THE RESIDENTS IN MANAGING THEIR HEALTH AND AID IN ACHIEVING HEALTHIER OUTCOMES. THIS FUNDING WILL BE USED TO SUPPORT A PORTION OF PROJECT START UP EXPENSE FOR STAFFING, SUPPLIES, AND OUTREACH WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR OTHER SOURCES OF INCOME TO BE INVESTED IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORTING ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION AND TELEMEDICINE, PATIENT EDUCATION MATERIAL, PATIENT OUTREACH INITIATIVES AND
