My colleagues and I are now beginning the research titled: Unsung Heroes: The Lived Journey of Gay (Male) Nurses during the HIV/AIDS Pandemic. The research team is made up of four professors, mostly from the University of Ottawa.
We are presently looking for Canadian gay (male) nurses who cared for HIV/AIDS patients (PLHIV) during the pandemic, between 1981 and 1998, before the advent of antiretroviral drugs, to participate in an interview.
Could you please share this information to Canadian gay (male) nurses who may be interested in this research? It would be greatly appreciated.
For more information, you may contact me using my ResearchGate account.
