Understanding and preventing chronic disease in people living with HIV

澳大利亚的老龄化人口越来越容易患心脏病和糖尿病等慢性病。对于感染艾滋病毒的澳大利亚人来说，这些疾病发生的频率更高，年龄更早。我将调查这种风险增加的潜在原因，并将测试帮助艾滋病毒感染者降低慢性疾病风险的创新在线系统。这项工作将为面临患慢性病风险的澳大利亚人提供重要信息。

Australia’s ageing population is increasingly at risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. For Australians who are living with HIV, these diseases occur more frequently and at an earlier age. I will be investigating the underlying reasons for this increase in risk and will test innovative online systems that help people living with HIV reduce their risk of chronic disease. This work will provide important information for Australians at risk of developing chronic disease.
