Abstract

I will cover examples of quasiexperimental methods that we have used in the IeDEA cohort to assess the impact of polices on HIV care outcomes in the past. I will also share the aims and design for a recently funded R01 to examine the causal effects of extreme weather on HIV care outcomes around the globe.

Learning Objectives

At the completion of this talk, attendees will be able to:

• To understand the structure, scope and design of the global IeDEA network of HIV care cohorts;
• To appreciate the potential for applications of quasiexperimental methods to address causal research questions around HIV care outcomes;
• To become oriented to the climate-related data sources that can be used to create exposure variables to assess the influence of extreme weather on HIV care outcomes.
