HIV/AIDS
The study of the interaction between humans and HIV is a complex one. HIV is a disease with stigma and fear associated with it.
Educating people and communities about HIV and the advances in treatment and in prevention is core to helping communities grow and cope with HIV in our society. Part of this is helping medical professionals understand the social and emotional tools needed to communicate with HIV positive people and their families and communities. The other part is communicating treatment and health practices to patients and the community.
