Research

Our research group seeks to understand and address the mechanisms underlying damage to the central nervous system in HIV infection, and the establishment and reduction of viral reservoirs in the CNS. We work in diverse modalities, and with a wide range of collaborators, to study the processes of immune activation, neuroprotection, and neuropathogenesis that occur during acute, primary, and chronic HIV.

The HAND Plus Study
HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorders

​The HAND Plus Study establishes a biorepository that will allow for collaborative investigation of the neurological mechanisms of HIV and other infectious diseases. 

PISCES
Central Nervous System Events in Primary HIV Infection

​The primary goal of PISCES is to longitudinally define CNS host responses and viral features during early exposure to HIV through serial clinical, CSF, and MRI/MRS analyses.
