 | CANOCThe Canadian Observational Cohort Collaboration (CANOC) is an initiative of the Epidemiology and Population Health Program at the BC-CfE. It is an integrated network of all registered treatment information from eight cohort databases across British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec. CANOC is funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the CIHR Canadian Trials Network (CTN). |
 | HOMERThe HAART Observational Medical Evaluation and Research (HOMER) study is a retrospective cohort of HIV-positive individuals receiving HAART in British Columbia. Started on August 1, 1996, the cohort follows HIV-infected individuals in the Drug Treatment Program who initiated HAART with three or more antiretroviral agents. |
| IMPACT-HIVInterdisciplinary Modelling for the Prevention, Care and Treatment of HIV (IMPACT-HIV) is a collaboration of HIV researchers of the BC Centre for Excellence in HIV and AIDS and mathematicians of the Complex Systems Modeling Group (CSMG) at the IRMACS Centre of Simon Fraser University. |
| LISAThe Longitudinal Investigations into Services and Ancillary Services (LISA) project is a three-year initiative of the BC-CfE funded by the Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHR). The objective of the LISA project is to better understand how people living with HIV and taking HAART are doing in terms of supportive services use, socio-demographic factors, and quality of life. |
| ManCountThe ManCount survey is designed for gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men, in order to measure the level of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections in the community (such as syphilis, Hepatitis C, and Human Papilloma Virus). The survey also measures sexual behaviours and other factors that help to explain why these infections occur. The goal is to repeat the ManCount survey every few years in order to monitor whether these infections and behaviours are increasing or decreasing. |
