Transnormativity Begone! The Sexual Satisfaction of Transgender and Nonbinary Individuals

In this project, we want to learn more about transgender and nonbinary individuals' sexual satisfaction. Sexual satisfaction is a prominent indicator of an individual's well-being and satisfaction with life. Current research focuses mainly on cisgender heterosexual populations. By focusing on people who identify under the nonbinary umbrella, in addition to binary-identifying trans people, we hope to examine how gender, the sociopolitical world, and a person's sexual satisfaction all intersect.

Social Media and Drug Discovery

Finding new drugs is a long, expensive process. Drug repurposing, using an old drug for a new disorder, can make this process shorter and cheaper, and can occur by chance when a patient has two medical conditions that are treatable by the same drug. We hope that including you, the consumer, as a partner in drug development through self-report of unexpected benefits from medicinal agents could identify some with potential for repurposing. Your responses to a short Social Media survey may help you and others in the future.

Access to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis for Prevention of HIV Transmission for College Students Survey

The CDC reported that in 2021, 93% of all young adults newly diagnosed with HIV were college-aged individuals of 18 to 24 years old.

This study aims to uncover what barriers to accessing PrEP that young adults in college may be facing.
