Summary
The Ontario HIV Treatment Network (OHTN) / St. Michael¿s Hospital-led Centre for Interdisciplinary Training and Research in HIV and AIDS (CITRHA) is an innovative model for learning, mentorship, training and research. CITRHA will build an national interdisciplinary learning network -- connecting faculty in six major academic training hubs (Dalhousie, Queen¿s, St. Michael¿s Hospital, University of Windsor, University of Calgary, and Simon Fraser University) as well as faculty in 20 other universities across the nation -- 14 front-line organizations and 7 policy-makers. The Centre will provide a dynamic academic and service learning environment that will attract outstanding students across a wide range of disciplines and develop 60 to 70 new social science researchers skilled in interdisciplinary research, community-based research, ethics, and knowledge translation who are able to work collaboratively with other researchers, community and policy makers to have a national and global impact on the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
Major Aims and Objectives of CITRHA: 1) Establish a National Training Network; 2) Build an Interdisciplinary Training Model and Approach; 3) Broaden Content Learning Opportunities; 4) Offer Practical Training Opportunities; and 5) Monitor and Evaluate the Success of CITRHA.
