What inspires you to work in the HIV field?

My motivation is the constant challenge of stigma and discrimination.

My goals are to:

  1. Contribute to reducing stigma and discrimination.
  2. Find better treatment and care of subjects.
  3. Provide access to the best of treatment.
  4. Be part of ongoing research on reducing opportunistic infections and reducing ARV drug toxicities.
  5. Conduct research to cure HIV.
