Our application for an emerging team grant proposes an integrated research, mentoring, education and knowledge translation program to undertake policy-relevant research regarding treatment and management practices for person with HIV/AIDS in Canada. This program will:
-
evaluate the impact of antiretroviral care on the health and well being of persons infected with HIV/AIDS in various regions of Canada,
-
assist in the training of new health practitioners and researchers, and
-
disseminate research findings in ways that will improve current practice guidelines for treatment and care.
Through these three objectives we hope to foster research collaborations between interested Canadian researchers, to enhance existing research and training opportunities for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and clinicians in the country, and to inform clinicians and persons living with HIV/AIDS in all regions of the country about our findings that may affect current treatment and management practices.
