Our Research

The Ortblad team aims to improve equity in health access by developing and testing differentiated models of HIV service delivery in high prevalence settings. In collaboration with our Kenyan research colleagues, we apply findings from qualitative research and stakeholder engagement to develop and refine novel service delivery models, which  we subsequently test in pilot studies and hybrid implementation-effectiveness trials. Our research uses diverse methods from the fields of epidemiology, economics, public policy, psychology, and implementation science.
