Developing And Implenting An Ethical Framework For HIV Phylogenetic Analysis In Australia
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$537,855.00
Summary
Overseas, many countries are using genetic analysis to detect clusters of HIV transmission. This is an important part of reducing the number of new HIV infections, and making sure that all people with HIV receive timely medical care. In partnership with HIV community organisations and public health policy makers, we will provide the first evidence-base for the public health utility of real-time HIV genetic analysis in the Australian setting.
Implementation Research To Guide The Elimination Of HIV Transmission In NSW
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$1,499,409.00
Summary
The implementation of new biomedical forms of HIV prevention since 2015 has been accompanied by a 40% reduction in HIV diagnoses in gay and bisexual men in New South Wales (NSW). Reductions in HIV have been much smaller in the overseas-born, the young, and in those living outside of inner Sydney. We propose a 5-year program of implementation research, integrated with the NSW HIV Strategy 2021-25, which will see NSW become the first jurisdiction globally to virtually eliminate HIV.
Enhancing Behavioural Surveillance To Address Gaps And Disparities In Australia's HIV Response In A Changing HIV Epidemic
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$1,268,159.00
Summary
This project will test and evaluate changes to Australia's HIV behavioural surveillance system, increasing recruitment and data collection from overseas-born, bisexual and heterosexual men who have sex with men (MSM). This is necessary because Australia's HIV epidemic is changing, with falling infections among Australian-born gay men, but rising infections in other groups, such as Asian-born MSM. The project will use technological advancements in recruitment, survey research and interviews.
