Research

Overview

My research focuses on the neurological complications of systemic infections, including HIV and COVID-19. After completing my clinical training in Infectious Diseases, I pursued a research fellowship in Neuro-Infectious Diseases at the Yale School of Medicine, focusing my work on neurological complications of HIV in older adults on suppressive antiretroviral therapy. In my clinical role, I care for adults with neurological complications of HIV, Lyme, Syphilis, and other infectious diseases.
