Select from the following:
Dr Donnell is a biostatistician in the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Division at Fred Hutch, Seattle and the Department of Global Health at the University of Washington and the Principal Investigator of the HPTN Statistical and Data Management Center. She has participated as a biostatistician in the design and analysis of HIV prevention trials conducted in the US and internationally (Asia and Africa) for 20 years, primarily under the auspices of the NIAID funded HIV Prevention Trials Network (HPTN). She has a very broad exposure to ongoing prevention research in sexual and injection risk populations, both within the US and in the African and Asian subcontinents.
Currently she is engaged with trials evaluating injectable PrEP for HIV prevention (HPTN 083), the relationship between long-acting hormonal contraceptives and HIV (ECHO trial: Global Health, University of Washington); and the community randomized trial PopART (HPTN 071).
