Looking to be Part of Research In Houston Area
« on: December 02, 2016, 10:49:40 pm »
Hi,

I would like to be a part of a HIV drug trial study in Houston, texas.
Partly because I wanna contribute something to the poz community, partly because I could afford free treatment if being part of the study.

Was wondering if anyone has any idea, how to go about it,

jackiboy:  I've split your post, retitled its subject, and moved to the appropriate area of the forum.

Your first post implies that you are from India, so I presume you are now in the Houston, TX, area of the United States pursuing graduate studies.  If I am mistaken, please advise.

You may wish to check with your doctor, if you have one, in Houston, to see if he or she knows of any local HIV drug trials.

Otherwise, these links may help answer your question:

Good luck on your quest.
