An interest in better herpes and STI care can lead to very different activities: community education, a research proposal, a clinical trial or a commercial partnership. This page is an information and enquiry guide, not confirmation of Canadian funding, access to treatment or enrolment in a study.
Start with the Canadian clinical trial search portal. The portal explains that recruitment status can differ by study site, so confirm it with the sponsor. Discuss a potential study with your healthcare professional and ask the study team about eligibility, visits, risks and any costs. A listing does not mean a treatment will benefit you.
Describe the problem, the intended population, the province or territory involved and the stage of the work. Explain the evidence, language-access needs and how participant privacy would be addressed. Do not send patient-identifiable records or confidential research material in an initial enquiry.
Use the official research and innovation page to check current scope and contact instructions. An introductory conversation does not establish a grant, investment, partnership or approval to conduct research. For personal healthcare needs, use our Canadian care guide instead.
