The American Transformative HIV Study: Protocol for a US National Cohort of Sexual and Gender Minority Individuals With HIV
A large, US national, and racially diverse web-based cohort of SGM individuals at high risk for HIV has been successfully enrolled and will be followed through 2027. Persons who use methamphetamine have been oversampled and demonstrated an exceptionally greater risk for HIV. Our study will offer insight into the development and implementation of new interventions, which aim to have a meaningful impact on HIV transmission.
