Thesis Title: The psychosociological influences on the decision to take Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) amongst the MSM Community
Anthony is interested in research surrounding the social psychological influences that impact the decision to take PrEP amongst those identifying as 'Men who have sex with Men' (MSM). By trying to understand more about the complex social embedment of HIV and PrEP within the milieu of MSM as well as their individual identities, this research aims to better influence health policy to encourage increased uptake of PrEP amongst at-risk populations.
