The ATN has renewed its call for scholars and mentors for its Diversity Scholars program. The deadline has been extended to August 15, 2019.

Researchers who are part of the ATN met in Washington, DC from April 8-11, 2019 for the biannual Full Meeting for the network. The meeting allows people around the country who conduct current ATN research studies to collaborate, learn, and build professional relationships.

Activist and artist Dasan Ahanu worked with the ATN to write and perform his spoken word piece on youth HIV stigma in this video.

Fifteen studies were recently added from Adolescent Medicine Trials for HIV/AIDS Interventions (ATN) to the NICHD Data and Specimen Hub (DASH) archive.

The ATN welcomes ideas from the scientific community in the form of proposals for new studies which are consistent with the Network's mission and are not currently being planned or pursued elsewhere. The ATN also welcomes proposals from investigators who would like to use existing data and/or specimens collected during ATN studies to answer questions related to the HIV epidemic among US adolescents and young adults.

"I currently work as a Medical Case Manager at a local safe space where my duties are to provide medical linkage and support services to newly diagnosed HIV positive youth, 13-23 years old, while also working with HIV positive youth to maintain their health and medical adherence."
