The primary objective of the HIV/AIDS track is to offer state-of-the-art training in clinical research neuropsychology for highly qualified clinical psychologists with strong scientist-practitioner interests in specific issues related to people with HIV/AIDS. We seek to provide Fellows with systematic didactic, experiential and research training in the neuropsychology of HIV-1 infection. This training includes a core knowledge base in neuroscience, neuropsychiatry and clinical neuropsychological practice, especially in relation to HIV-1 infection. Fellows have the unique opportunity to link convergent scientific methodologies by investigating the relationships between neurocognitive dysfunction, functional neuroimaging, neuropsychiatry, psychosocial issues, and medication adherence. This training program's interdisciplinary approach allows the fellows to develop the clinical research skills required to understand brain-behavior relationships and neuropsychiatric issues in HIV disease.
