multiple clinical and basic research studies on Chlamydia trachomatis sexually transmitted infections (STI) in various third world countries and have just commenced a study in Fiji. Our clinical work is in STI clinics in collaboration with the Fiji Ministry
of Health to determine the incidence and prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections and risk factors for transmission of these infections to develop strategies for control. We are finding rates as high as 30% and 13%, respectively. We
are also comparing a novel point-of-care (POC) diagnostic with a commercial nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) for these two pathogens. One volunteer position (housing and flights provided) is for lab work done in Fiji with exposure to the clinical side
of the study starting in June, 2018. The other is for a research position at Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute, analyzing clinical samples gathered in Fiji, starting June 2018. </span></i></span><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
