Meet the Team
Given the many complex and interlocking social, clinical, and psychological features of HIV and ageing, respectively, a multidisciplinary approach is essential for the study of the increasingly diverse ageing HIV population. A key feature of the project is interdisciplinary work that draws on social gerontology, sociology, psychiatry, epidemiology, medicine, and service provision. The research team offers experience and expertise in interdisciplinary (clinical and social-scientific) research; the study of ageing, the life course, and distress and diagnosis (and HIV in particular); HIV service provision; epidemiology; and multiple methodological skills essential for the study’s successful completion. All members of the team have published widely on HIV, ageing and the life course, and/or lesbian and gay ageing, and many have collaborated in interdisciplinary research and/or service provision in the past. The team has also formed a strategic partnership with i-Base, a London-based HIV-treatment activist group providing information and support to PLWH and health care professionals.
