New community partnership model boosts inclusion of participants into HIV cure-directed research

Scientists have long used community advisory boards to engage communities and provide feedback on studies, but this model has limitations. Now, researchers from The Wistar Institute are sharing how a more inclusive model for community engagement can lead to deeper insights and greater community participation in HIV research. The community engagement group, or CEG model, is composed of a three-part structure with a community advisory board (CAB), community nonprofit organization, and researchers.
