The Infectious Diseases group actively collaborates with other research groups at Queen's in the Departments of Pathology & Molecular Medicine, Biomedical & Molecular Sciences and Community Health & Epidemiology. Clinical trials of new antimicrobial agents, particularly antiviral and antifungal compounds, are an area of active patient based research within the division along with quality improvement projects in Antimicrobial Stewardship and Infection Prevention & Control. The Infectious Diseases Division also participates in multi-centre research groups such as the Ontario HIV Treatment Network and the Canadian Lyme Disease Research Network.
