The UCLA AIDS Institute behavioral scientists explore how HIV infection affects patients and their families. UCLA faculty mambers partner with clinics and grassroots organizations to reach the people who need HIV education and services the most – adolescents, women, ethnic and other underrepresented communities, new immigrants and the poor and homeless. Key studies focus on the unique needs of women and teens infected with HIV, the complexity of HIV drug regimens, and how HIV patients enter the healthcare system.
