Pre-Reading for this event: Interactive Two-Way mHealth Interventions for Improving Medication Adherence: An Evaluation Using The Behaviour Change Wheel Framework
Guest: Matt Spinelli, MD, MAS
Matt Spinelli, MD, MAS, is an HIV/ID physician with training in implementation science methods who uses these approaches to support pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) implementation, PrEP/HIV ART adherence, and PrEP persistence/HIV retention in care. A key tool in his work is a point-of-care urine tenofovir test that can provide real-time adherence information to clinicians to drive adherence interventions. More recently, Spinelli lead projects on development of adherence measurement techniques for doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis, including a directly observed therapy randomized trial. He is the co-director of the Individual-Level Intervention Design course in the Implementation Science Division and serves as the PrEP Medical Lead for the Ward 86 Clinic. Spinelli is also member of the Partnership for Research in Implementation Science for Equity, a collaboration between the SF Department of Public Health and UCSF that seeks to use implementation science methods to advance health equity.
