Summer Institute

One core aspect of the STAHR program is an intense 4-week summer research training experience at UCSD for first-year scholars. The main goals of this Summer Institute are to increase knowledge on clinical and translational aspects of HIV/Aging and develop key skills for the development, implementation, and dissemination of mental health research in older HIV+ persons. The Summer Institute is structured such that throughout the 4 weeks, the mornings focus on building knowledge on HIV/Aging research and career development through formal didactics, structured readings, and meetings with faculty; and the afternoons are spent on "hands-on" experiences aimed at building skills on HIV/Aging mental health research, including participation in a group research project, field experiences, and tailored training rotations.

This year, we will arrange four weeks (two weeks at UCSD and two weeks virtually) of summer institute from 7/22/2024 to 8/16/2024.
