The CIHR Canadian HIV Trials Network (CTN) is an innovative partnership of clinical investigators, physicians, nurses, people living with HIV/AIDS, pharmaceutical manufacturers and others that facilitates HIV/AIDS clinical trials of the highest scientific and ethical standards. Mission The CTN is a Canada-wide partnership of researchers, caregivers, governments, health advocates, the innovative pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, and people living with HIV who are committed to developing treatments, preventions and a cure for HIV and related health conditions, through the conduct of scientifically sound and ethical trials. The CTN is committed to maximizing the impact of research and ultimately improving the health of Canadians by applying knowledge gained through research at home and abroad into applications and practice. Vision The CTN continues to facilitate high-quality, investigator-driven clinical trials and innovative clinical research, while engaging with knowledge-brokers and community in both official languages, and sharing resources and expertise among researchers, clinical trial sites, and institutions. Strategic Priorities The CTNs vision is translated into an actionable research agenda via the activities of our Research Cores. Each Core has its own priorities, but linkages and cross-cutting themes enable our researchers to maximize their collective capacity, addressing research priorities for both the Canadian HIV population and similarly affected populations abroad.
