Seminar Series: Cell to Society Research: What does it look like?

This lecture is part of the CBR lecture series. Held on Wednesdays from 1-2pm PT, CBR seminars feature insightful scientific talks, with speakers from a range of clinical, industry and academic backgrounds.

As effective antiretroviral therapies have drastically increased the lifespans of people living with HIV, health span (number of years in good health) is lagging behind, especially among women. Research priorities have shifted towards investigating the accelerated biological aging observed in this population. The Côté lab investigates the emerging challenges of aging with HIV, including reproductive outcomes, immune dysfunction, and the burden of comorbidities. We will describe the evolution of our research approaches and how ongoing projects incorporate a cell-to-society research framework
