Possible resources available through PREVAIL
PREVAIL is a research program, not a clinical care program, thus there are potential synergies between the PREVAIL research and the PEER program. When possible/feasible, the PREVAIL Executive Committee would like to endorse leveraging the PREVAIL research platform to assist with the success of the PEER program. There is a formal process for submission of studies which leverage the PREVAIL platform. Investigators are encouraged to cover the cost of the studies which can be minimized through the collaboration. When writing your application, you may wish to incorporate one or more of the resources available through the PREVAIL research platform, including:

Four clinical research sites
Clinical laboratories in three of the four clinical sites
IT resources (e.g. conference call lines, computers, screens, video-conferencing, etc.)
Potential for clinical research training and mentoring by experienced healthcare professionals to facilitate knowledge, use of Pub-Med
Administrative project management support
Training related to learning how to cost out a budget, build a clinic, and maintain a program independently
Utilization of available clinical outpatient space at several renovated sites (e.g. Redemption Hospital, JFK Medical Center, Duport Road Health Center, and the C.H. Rennie Hospital)
Access to the Liberia Biomedical Research Institute (LIBR) under the umbrella of the National Public Health Institute
Access to patient populations and experienced Physicians to enhance critical thinking skills
Potential training abroad at the NIH
