HIV-related Journal Articles by AETC-Affiliated Researchers and Faculty, 2019-2020

We close out 2020 by recognizing the productivity of the AETC community despite this year’s challenges and setbacks. In addition to restructuring and reimagining their clinical settings and AETC-related programming due to the COVID-19 pandemic, AETC members were also researching and reexamining HIV care continuum interventions and healthcare models. The following is a compilation of peer-reviewed studies, and other publications, produced by AETC-affiliated researchers and faculty published during 2019-2020. This list represents the work beyond the walls of the AETC Program. If you know of other HIV-related publications we may have missed, let us know and we’ll add them to the list.
