Suggestion: If you are trying to think of a suitable title to propose, look through this list of our existing reviews and reviews-in-progress. See if you can find a "gap" in what these reviews cover. That is to say, try to perceive an area of HIV/AIDS research that is not yet covered in a Cochrane review, but ought to be covered. This may be a useful way to think of a title in an area that interests you.

Please note: We are not accepting any proposals for reviews of diagnostic test accuracy at this time.
