The Transgender Women's Internet Survey and Testing

The Transgender Women's Internet Survey and Testing (TWIST) study is an annual, cross-sectional, online HIV behavioral survey of transgender women and transfeminine non-binary people assigned male at birth in the United States. The study previously included an optional mail-in self-testing kit for HIV/STIs, hepatitis C, and hormone levels (estrogen and testosterone). TWIST's aim is to examine the role of gender identity-based and sexual behavior-based stigmas on mental and sexual health, resilience, and access to care in this population.
