The Chicago Center for HIV Elimination (CCHE)

CCHE, Directed by Institute member Dr. John Schneider, seeks to eliminate new HIV transmission events over the next 30 years (from 2011 to 2041) by using network science to target and integrate prevention as well as create structural and community-specific interventions. The Chicago Center for HIV Elimination was conceptualized as a way to integrate the research, clinical, and community-based activities at the University of Chicago that are strategically positioned to eliminate new HIV transmission events.  CCHE is managed by an integrated team of faculty who work with staff, students, trainees and community to develop the scientific and programmatic agenda each year as they move towards elimination of HIV transmission.
