On the supply side, PSI works with the private, non-profit and public sectors to increase the availability of these products and services at prices that are affordable to low-income populations. With a bottom-line orientation that is rare among non-profits, PSI markets products and services for family planning, maternal and child health, and the prevention of AIDS, malaria and other diseases.\u00a0 PSI Research &amp; Metrics aims to improve the performance of PSI interventions through multi-disciplinary research, monitoring and evaluation on populations and markets.\u00a0 For more information, please visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.psi.org\/research\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.psi.org\/research<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>PSI Research &amp; Metrics seeks a Deputy Director\/Principal Investigator for Qualitative Research to be based in Washington, DC.
