Fenway Community Health

Fenway Community Health (FCH) was founded in 1971 as a grassroots, neighborhood clinic. Since then, FCH has grown to become the region's largest community-based provider of HIV/AIDS medical and mental health services. Under the leadership of Dr. Kenneth Mayer, the FCH Research and Evaluation Department was established in 1983 as one of the nation's first community-based HIV research programs. Over the years FCH has built an infrastructure necessary for the conduct of clinical trials. The FCH Research and Evaluation Department employs 50 staff members with extensive experience in the conduct of clinical trials.

Kenneth H. Mayer, M.D. is Medical Research Director at Boston's Fenway Community Health, where he has conducted studies of the natural history and transmission of HIV. Dr. Mayer is a Professor of Medicine and Community Health at Brown University, Director of the Brown University AIDS Program. In the early 1980s, as a research fellow at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Mayer was one of the first clinical researchers in New England to care for patients living with AIDS and to conduct community-based research in this field. He has been a principal investigator in trials studying anti-HIV vaccines, microbicides, post exposure prophylaxis (PEP), PrEP and behavioral interventions for HIV prevention.
