Center for AIDS Elimination (CAE)

The vision for the CAE is to promote excellence in basic and clinical research that is translated into best clinical and public health practices. This goal will be reached by fostering research collaboration, providing training, and promoting public health through a multitude of collaborations as shown in the figure below. An internal grants program funds career development and collaborative studies, and clinical preceptorships promote excellence in patient through the Mid-Atlantic AETC. The CAE hosts a seminar series consisting of outside speakers, ‘think tanks’, and discussions of works in progress. The CAE works in conjunction with AIDS Free Pittsburgh and the Allegheny County Health Department to promote awareness, education, and HIV prevention in the community.
