EPICC+ vs CLA NBME

Created by Lisa Hightow-Weidman, MD, MPH, a public health scientist, EPICC+ is a research study with the goal to: 1) adapt and enhance existing education tools to facilitate PrEP decision making between providers and clients, 2) train providers on the use of the adapted education tools and communication techniques, and 3) evaluate the impact by following a group of racially and geographically diverse youth over 12-18 months. EPICC+ users need a code to open the app. To learn more about the study, email EPICC@nursing.fsu.edu. This mobile app is intended for informational, educational and research purposes only.
