News and Research

WHP is one of the world's leading research sites for HIV in women. We are associated with the Women's Interagency HIV Study (WIHS), the largest cohort of HIV+ women in the country. Ruth Greenblatt, MD, our founder and a clinician with the program, is a principle investigator with WIHS and has over 80 scientific publications. Monica Gandhi, MD, is also an accomplished scientist and researcher in addition to her clinical activities. She focuses on the differences between men and women in their response to the anti-HIV medications. Edward Machtinger, MD, our clinic director, studies simple ways to improve medication adherence in HIV+ individuals, and was the senior author on a recent publication describing the cause of the cause of a common and highly morbid rash affecting HIV+ people in East Africa.

An upcoming section on this site will link to articles written by our clinicians at WHP.
