The Center, a multidisciplinary research enterprise that investigates the behavioral causes and consequences of HIV/AIDS, has been an international leader in providing research to address the changing demands of an increasingly global epidemic. Since its founding in 1987 with a grant from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the Center has focused on how gender, age, sexuality, and culture affect HIV infection; strategies to treat infected populations; and how to best disseminate information to people at risk.
