HIV seroconversion over time: 30 years of impact & findings 2022

Image
World AIDS Day special event reflecting on how far we've come 30 years after the first seroconversion study in Australia In 1992, the first in-depth study was set up to explore the 'event' that people attributed to their HIV seroconversion. Unique in the world, this study investigated the ways in which people understand and negotiate HIV risk. Over time, studies of HIV seroconversion have identified many important issues, such as the emergence of strategic positioning and serosorting. They have also chronicled, via participants' accounts, many significant developments in the epidemic, including contemporary antiretroviral-based HIV prevention approaches (notably 'treatment-as-prevention' and U=U). This research continues to be important in the current era, for example providing insights into HIV testing patterns, mobility, PrEP, and the negotiation of sexual encounters on digital media apps. On the 30th anniversary of the first seroconversion study in Australia ...

Gifts In A New Light at The Galeries 2022

80% of Australians receive unwanted gifts each year. From socks and undies to toilet brushes and plastic plants, the list is endless. But at The Galeries, it's pretty hard to buy a bad gift. As even the most ordinary are extraordinary. We held a National Poll, then took the top voted 'unwanted gifts' and positioned them in a new light. Via a first of its kind, we used the Artificial Intelligence program, Mid Journey, and partnered with M-Lon, a local Digital Artist to turn them into objects of desire for all to enjoy on our unconventional 'digi-tree' on Ground Floor. The Galeries will also be collecting donated goods on behalf of The Red Cross and encouraging customers to donate unwanted gifts incentre from Boxing Day. The funds raised from donations will go towards supporting Red Cross teams on the ground in Australia and across the Asia Pacific. https://upnext.com.au/event/gifts-in-a-new-light-at-the-galeries-2022 Check out our website https://upnext.com.au/sydney...

Within this plethora of entwined histories, swimming through a universe of shadow and light, dark matter and light waves, Boyd's lenses provide both a distant viewpoint and a void between what is seen and what is concealed. We discover the mottled figure of famous Tahitian man Omai, who was brought aboard during Cook'...
