HIV Program Webinar Series: Reciprocal Innovation to Improve Cardiovascular Health in People Living with HIV

1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. EDT
Virtual

Description

This NHLBI HIV/AIDS Program webinar features Chris Longenecker, M.D., Associate Professor in the Division of Cardiology and Department of Global Health at the University of Washington School of Medicine. In this talk, Dr. Longenecker will discuss concepts in reciprocal innovation research and give concrete examples of ongoing projects that aim to improve the cardiovascular health of people living with HIV around the world.

Reciprocal innovation is the idea that innovations developed and tested in one context may be transportable to another context, often with adaptation.  It is bi-directional and requires equitable partnerships to address shared health challenges. Implementation research tests strategies to facilitate the uptake of evidence-based interventions. Implementation research in global cardiovascular health may benefit from intentional partnerships to foster reciprocal innovation.
