Transcend Program
Herodoto Tenk
As your enterprise launches new products, marketing initiatives, and expands into new territories, personal data scatters across a complex apparatus of systems processing personal data. This immense data sprawl makes compliance expensive and labor intensive, thus jeopardizing trust and slowing business growth.
The rise of generative artificial intelligence is transforming the way we work. Transcend enables AI companies, like Jasper, and any business using these tools to prioritize growth while ensuring industry-leading compliance.
Transcend empowers consumer-focused businesses, such as Groupon and Eventbrite, with automated tools to manage user data seamlessly, building stronger customer relationships through transparency and control.
Managing health data demands unparalleled privacy and security standards. Industry leaders like Hims & Hers partner with Transcend for advanced solutions in discovering, classifying, and organizing personal data.
Leaders in fintech like Robinhood trust Transcend to integrate privacy across their tech stacks. Our platform offers robust automation for your privacy program, fortified with industry-leading security.
Leading media companies like The Athletic choose Transcend to integrate privacy seamlessly into their tech stacks. Our solutions ensure compliance and operational efficiency across diverse brands, audiences, and regions.
Our Transcend implementation has resulted in significantly greater compliance. 'Transcend' has become part of the language of the enterprise. It is understood that applications must be connected to Transcend, which is particularly remarkable since we are a global company.
The Transcend program for Transgender, Gender Non-Conforming, and Non-Binary people is now offering monthly community group sessions at our Queens LGBT Center (Q-Center) in Astoria. Group sessions provide a safe space to learn from each other and discuss issues of importance to our community, such as coming out and being out, processes for name and gender marker changes, self-advocacy in healthcare, and more. The Transcend program offers many services for Transgender, Gender Non-Conforming, and Non-Binary (TGNCNB) people. Our HIV/STI prevention services offer testing and PrEP linkages for Young (ages 13-34) TGNCNB people of color. You can earn $25 when you test or refer a friend.
Dive into a sincere conversation about mental health within the TGNCNB community in our next session. We will be unpacking essential topics, as managing dysphoria, the unique risk factors for mental health within the community, and ways to cope.

TRANSCEND integrates faculty from 3 colleges/schools and 5 departments, currently siloed within distinct degree programs. Our integrated EdNeuro Bidirectional Approach and Cyclical Model that requires convergence of multiple disciplines, will lead to more ecologically valid research grounded in practice, and rapid translation of research to practice.
TRANSCEND centers neurodiverse learners (e.g., with ADHD, dyslexia, and/or autism spectrum disorder) both as a key population of investigation and as trainees. TRANSCEND will prioritize recruitment and retention of neurodiverse trainees, capitalizing on our expansive network including NSF INCLUDES partners.
We expand on UConn NRTs that leveraged problem-based learning, and add deliberate and formal implementation of team science approaches while considering diversity (in both demography and expertise) to enhance team creativity and productivity; and to facilitate collaborations, cultural competence, and career readiness. The Graduate School will support efforts to develop new modes of dissertation research based on transdisciplinary teams.
1-year out alumni surveys have been emailed to the class of 2023. Surveys were sent to the email address used for registration. Please contact carissa.r...@uconn.edu if you are a UConn ECE alumni from the high school class of 2023 and did not receive an email with the survey link.
The Master of Science (MS) in Clinical Research Methods is attained through the Clinical Research Training Program (CRTP). This intensive two-year program is designed for those pursuing a career in investigator-initiated, hypothesis-driven clinical research. CRTP scholars are drawn from all of Einstein's medical specialties and subspecialties, including those interested in clinical investigation across the entire translational research spectrum, from mechanistic studies to population-based and health services research. The comprehensive program combines didactic learning and coursework with a mentored research experience.
At any given time, there are approximately 50 junior faculty in the Einstein-Montefiore system who are receiving career development awards in clinical and translational research. While each awardee has her/his own career development and mentoring plan, there are some overarching, near universal issues faced by all such Scholars. For instance:
Transgender (TG) persons, especially transgender women (TGW), have a high lifetime risk of acquiring HIV. Black/African American (Black) and Hispanic/Latino (Hispanic) TGW have the highest prevalence of HIV among TG persons. Many TG persons experience poverty, homelessness, stigma, discrimination, and abuse; have mental health and substance use disorders; and need essential support services. In this demonstration project, transgender health care organizations (TG clinics) are funded to work in collaboration with transgender-serving community-based organizations (TG CBOs) to develop models for community-to-clinic, status-neutral HIV prevention and care services. Recipients provide comprehensive, co-located health services including HIV testing, preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP), gender-affirming hormone therapy, primary health care, and navigation. Navigation is used to link TG persons as needed to service for mental health and substance use disorders and essential support services. Recipients work with TG CBOs to engage TG persons in HIV testing and education and navigate them to TG clinics. Key outcomes in the project include an increased number of TG persons who initiate, adhere to, and persist with PrEP; increased rates of viral suppression among TG persons with diagnosed HIV; and an increased number of TG persons with unmet needs who receive services for mental health and substance use disorders and other essential support services.
In this demonstration project, CDC is funding TG clinics to partner with TG CBOs in developing and evaluating community-to-clinic models for integrated status-neutral HIV prevention and care services, gender-affirming services including hormone therapy, and primary health care. These models will increase use of HIV prevention and treatment by TG persons to decrease HIV transmission and improve overall health and wellbeing.
CDC is working in partnership with the recipients to develop and evaluate community-to-clinic integrated and holistic models to provide co-located status-neutral HIV prevention and care services for TG persons. Co-located health services have been associated with persons remaining engaged in health care and better health outcomes. These services have been developed with cultural and linguistic responsiveness for TG persons.
This project has four strategies: (1) To provide integrated HIV testing, status-neutral HIV prevention and care services, and comprehensive TG health services to TG persons through TG CBO and clinic collaboratives; (2) To support use of mental health and substance use disorder services and other essential support services by TG persons with needs for these services; (3) To provide services that are culturally sensitive for TG persons, especially for Black and Hispanic persons; and (4) To support development of and participation in a national learning collaborative to share lessons learned and best practices for TG clinic and TG CBO partnerships to provide community-to-clinic, status-neutral, comprehensive services for TG persons.
CDC is requesting de-identified person-level longitudinal data, collected, and stored through electronic health records (EHRs), at baseline and every 6 months from recipients to calculate outcome measures for the intended outcomes:
The TRANSCEND Learning Collaborative, hosted by the National Prevention Information Network (NPIN), will provide an NPIN Community forum and quarterly meetings to dialog with other TRANSCEND Learning Collaborative members to share best practices, lessons learned, and program-related materials and resources with one another.
Once a member of the Learning Collaborative, members can engage the Community and register for TRANSCEND Learning Collaborative quarterly meetings and other special events using the links provided in the Community page.
