“Telomere length and associations with age-related diseases among people living with HIV on ART”

Dr. Achenbach is an Associate Professor of Medicine at the Feinberg School of Medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases and the Center for Global Health. Dr. Achenbach is a specialist in Infectious Diseases with clinical interests in the treatment of HIV infection and co-infections.

Dr. Carlos Gallo’s research aims to facilitate the implementation of evidence based programs (EBPs) by local agencies, particularly those addressing health inequities in LGBT and ethnic minority populations. Dr. Gallo is interested in developing computational methods that monitor implementation indicators and provide real-time feedback useful for health care providers and funding agencies.
