Personal Statement

I spend the majority of my time conducting clinical research related to complications of HIV disease and its treatment. In addition to my HIV research, I collaborate with colleagues in Salvador, Brazil on investigations of tropical diseases, including leishmaniasis and HTLV-I infection. I have been privileged to work with and mentor medical students, residents, and infectious disease fellows on various research projects over the past decade. I also provide longitudinal care to HIV-infected patients at the Center for Special Studies, attend on the infectious diseases consult service at the New York Presbyterian Hospital, and direct the Weill Cornell site of a federally funded consortium that trains clinicians in HIV management.
