Lecture/Seminar
Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Internist at Massachusetts General Hospital
Jessica Haberer, MD, MS, is an internist at Massachusetts General Hospital and Professor at Harvard Medical School. She has been working in global health and studying adherence to antiretroviral medications for the treatment and prevention of HIV infection since the early 2000s. Her research focuses on real-time adherence monitoring and intervention. Current projects are based in Uganda, Kenya, and South Africa.
About INSIGHTS (Innovative Non-traditional healthcare Settings in HIV research lecture Series): The purpose of this lecture series is to provide the community of HIV researchers with space and time to hear about innovative research conducted outside of traditional healthcare settings. This research includes any HIV-related interventions that can be applied to HIV research, including those that are conducted outside of the clinic (e.g., pharmacy, patients’ homes, CBO, mobile vans unrelated to the clinic, outdoors), can increase access to medications without involving clinics, or can enhance PrEP or ART adherence and persistence without clinic input.
This lecture series is funded by the UCSF CFAR Boost award.
