Differences in Neurocognitive Impairment Associated with HIV and Aging Among Ethnic/Racial Groups

Agency: NIH/NIMH

Agency Award Number: K23 MH105297

This project aims to investigate differences among ethnic/racial groups in neurocognitive impairment (i.e., problems with attention, learning and memory, and other thinking skills) associated with HIV and aging, including rates and determinants. To this end, we will assess up to 200 older (50+ years) HIV-infected (HIV+) Hispanics and non-Hispanic Whites over the duration of the study (Hispanic (n=100) or NH White (n=100)).
