Research that we are supporting
Queensland Positive People is frequently called upon to be involved in local, state, national, and international research. Some of the projects and studies are short term, others may span many years. Often our research partners may call upon our community to take a more active role in this research, from completing surveys, doing interviews, participating in workshops, through to being involved in drug trials.
Queensland has been, and remains a world leader in HIV care and support because of the passionate involvement and open sharing of all who have been involved in research in the past. It is on those shoulders we stand today.
Below is a list of the some of the current, and past studies that QPP supports, some of which you can get involved in. We’d encourage you to read our page on Participating in Trials for a little more information about if and when you should take an active role in research.
