EnGAGE stands for Ethical partnerships with transGender And Gender diverse communities for conducting pharmacoEpidemiologic research.
This project is aimed at ethically engaging transgender and gender-diverse populations in pharmacoepidemiology research.
It is being conducted by Dr. Mary De Vera’s lab at UBC and in collaboration with Dr. Lori Brotto and the Women’s Health Research Institute (WHRI).
CAN/LET’S was identified as a community member/representative with expertise working with and serving transgender communities. CAN/LET’S was invited to participate in a discussion with members of the EnGAGE team and other participants who share our experience.
We spoke with researchers about how they can ethically engage members of the transgender community as collaborators and co-investigators in research. Our insight and expertise will be used to inform best practices amongst clinicians and researchers on fostering ethical and sustainable collaborations with transgender communities.
