SCIENCE COMMUNICATION
ARTICLES AND NEWSLETTERS
Science communication articles
Science communication articles
In 2017, we reached a joint decision with SEISIDA to raise awareness about CoRIS work by writing science communication articles for the Multidisciplinary Journal of AIDS (RMdS). This open-access digital journal publishes scientific papers and intervention projects of methodological rigour, which contribute to advancing our understanding of HIV and AIDS under all likely scenarios.
You can see below all the articles we have published to date.
- CoRIS: A researcher cohort enabling a cohort study of patients living with HIV. HIV research is also conducted out of laboratories.
- Women living with HIV also await deliveries from the stork.
- CoRIS in favor of PrEP as a strategy to reach 90-90-90.
- Pharmacoepidemiology in CoRIS to improve the patients’ quality of life.
- Statistics are key to respond to complex HIV-related questions.
- The importance of data quality to be reached in tracking the “90-90-90 target”: Coris cohort implementation of the Quality Management System based on the ISO 9001:2015 standard.
- Ageing in people living with HIV: new challenges that call for new responses from CoRIS.
- The Spanish AIDS Network Research (RIS) and CoRIS cohort commitment to popularising science in RMds.
- El embarazo en las mujeres que viven con VIH, más allá del estigma
Newsletters
CoRIS Coordination Unit writes a yearly newsletter, which summarises: CoRIS latest news regarding its database yearly update, research projects underway, published scientific papers, works presented at national and international congresses, dissemination activities performed and other relevant news

SCIENCE COMMUNICATION
ACTIVITIES
Science Week
Every year we participate in the Science Week, which is organised by the Madrid Foundation for Knowledge.
In this event, you will find out how our cohort and HIV BioBank work, and how these two scientific platforms conduct research and advance our understanding of HIV.
We usually arrange a guided visit to HIV BioBank facilities, which took place virtually in the last edition (November 2020).
European Researchers’ Night
For several years, we have been organising science communication activities within the European Researchers’ Night.
One of our favourite activities is radio workshops, where we teach attendants to broadcast on the radio, while we tell them about our cohort and how it works. It is a unique opportunity to share our approach to science in a playful manner.
PrEParadxs Party
“PrEParadxs Party” is a fun scientific outreach event, which CoRIS has been organising since 2017 together with the Spanish AIDS Research network, and with the HIV-positive community involvement.
Scientific platforms devised this scientific party to call for the implementation of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) as a combined strategy for HIV prevention.
This is the reason why, every year, in the framework of Madrid Gay Pride celebrations, all HIV-related entities come together to discuss Spain’s current infection situation in an informal setting.
Here is a video summary of last year’s event (July 2019).
