SUMMARY:RADx-UP Return to School Phase I and II Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Sponsor/Co-Sponsor\nRapid Acceleration of Diagnostics Underserved Populations (RADxSM-UP) Initiative\, Office of the NIH Director\, NIH \nLocation\nZoom webinar; registration is free but required \nPurpose\nNIH launched the Safe Return to School Diagnostic Testing Initiative as part of the RADxSM-UP initiative. The Return to School initiative addresses the needs of children with unequal access to COVID testing\, as well as those facing barriers to attending school remotely. This includes children who lack access to computers and internet connectivity or who may not have family members available to help with virtual learning. Without in-person schooling\, many children will miss out on school-based meals\, speech or occupational therapy\, and afterschool programs. Loss of such services disproportionately affects minorities\, socially and economically disadvantaged children\, children with disabilities and those with medical complexities. \nThis workshop will bring together RADx-UP Return to School Phase I and Phase II awardees/investigative teams and other researchers conducting school-based research on COVID-19 diagnostic testing to learn from each other and define the current state of their research projects supporting the safe return of children to in-person school. \nThe goal is for participants to use this knowledge and experience to identify the following: \n\nCommon themes and shared research milestones and opportunities that complement and fast-track the translation of research results into knowledge\, tools\, and procedures to improve health of school communities\nGaps that need addressing to inform future research directions\, including alternate testing approaches to increase testing size population\n\nIndividuals who need reasonable accommodations to participate in this activity should contact Kristin Borowski at kborowski@deloitte.com at least 5 days in advance. \nMore Information\nRegister and learn more \nContacts\nFor registration-related questions:\nKristin Borowski\nDeloitte\nEmail: kborowski@deloitte.com \nFor workshop-related questions:\nDr. Sonia Lee\, Maternal and Pediatric Infectious Disease Branch\, Division of Extramural Research\, NICHD\nPhone: 301-594-4783\nEmail: sonia.lee@nih.gov
