This $670,856 Project Grant award from the Fogarty International Center's International Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.989) will be used by The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct a study in Kazakhstan. The project aims to 1) objectively measure negative attitudes among dental care providers towards people with HIV and substance use disorder, and 2) develop an intervention to increase screening and improve care outcomes for these patient populations. The study will use a standardized patient approach to obtain a baseline assessment of provider attitudes in 16 dental clinics, and then leverage these insights to design a sustainable care improvement intervention for dental providers in Kazakhstan. This work addresses an important gap, as Kazakhstan faces a growing HIV epidemic driven by substance use, while dental providers receive minimal training on these conditions.
