Work In Progress Seminar Series

Dear colleagues! 
CHEMP invites you to the next session of our `work In progress` seminar series, which will be held on September 27, 2017 at 18:20. Anastasia Meylakhs will present the paper "Sexual partnerships of Russian drug users: reduction and increase in HIV-infection transmission risks within relationships' dynamics".

Seminar presentation will be based on a pilot study results of «Staying Safe in St. Petersburg: how long-term IDUs avoid HIV infection». We will describe how some aspects of being in a stable relationships may facilitate or block a viral transmission within a couple. Mainstream public health studies predominately show injecting drugs couples as a route of viruses transmission; contrary to that vision we recognise a protective effects of PWID couples as a factor for their health and well-being in the long run.

Venue:
 Saint-Petersburg, Kantemirovskaya st. 3A, room 353.

All are welcome to attend!
