Network Canvas 2.0: Enhancing network data capture for drug use and HIV research
PROJECT SUMMARY Over the last two decades, a growing literature has demonstrated that social factors drive both drug use and infectious diseases such as HIV. Simultaneously, epidemic modeling has become vital for reducing the spread of HIV, as it allows insight into mechanisms of spread, forecasts future incidence, and provides guidance on effective intervention strategies. However, despite all their power and complexity, these epidemic models still often lack realistic social data, as network and contextual data reflective of the most at-risk populations are often deemed too methodologically challenging to capture. In line with the urgent need for data capture tools which enable…
