Congratulations Lucy, Sina, and Duy for being awarded 2025 CIHR Travel Awards! 🎉
In January, EPIX Lab members spent weeks crafting abstracts to several 2025 conferences and applying to the CIHR Institute Community Support (ICS) Travel Awards! And, last week, we received amazing news that three of our very own received the award to present their projects across Canada:
Lucy: "Intersecting Risks: Heightened Syphilis Seropositivity Among Equity-Deserving Populations in Ontario, Canada" at the STI & HIV 2025 World Congress (Montreal, QC) in July 2025
Sina: "Contextual facilitators to public health units’ adoption of the rapid syphilis "test and treat" outreach model of care" at the STI & HIV 2025 World Congress (Montreal, QC) in July 2025
Duy: “Ease up on us a little”: Barriers to Syphilis Testing Among Un(der)housed Individuals and People Who Use Drugs in Kingston, Ontario" at the Issues of Substance Conference (Halifax, NS) in November 2025
Cheers to more exciting news and awards for the EPIX team 🎉
