About the Emory Hope Clinic
The Hope Clinic is a part of the Emory University Vaccine Center of the School of Medicine.
In recent statistics, the CDC predictions that 1 in 2 Black gay men in America will be diagnosed with HIV by their 40th Birthday if the current trends in HIV rates among black men do not change. Currently the highest rates of new HIV infections are among African American men ages between 18 and 30.
This event was part of the overall effort to try and change those statistics.
It is not an easy task, but at Emory Hope Clinic the scientists and researchers work every day to try to find new ways of protecting us against infections and diseases.
The Hope Clinic Community Engagement and Recruitment Team, led by the amazing Machel and his team have done a phenomenal job at engaging, educating and empowering the community to Get Involved with Clinical Research.
