His research interests include community-based HIV testing, HIV prevention and treatment, TB/HIV co-infection, TB transmission dynamics and behavioral economic interventions to promote prevention of HIV and TB in East Africa, with a focus on adults with increased risk of HIV at alcohol drinking venues in Kenya and Uganda. He is a protocol vice-chair of the SAPPHIRE Trial and a co-investigator with the SEARCH Consortium in East Africa. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, his interests also include SARS-CoV-2 testing and inequities in SARS-CoV-2 infection in the U.S., as co-PD of the Aliados por la Salud (NIH-RADxUP) study in San Rafael and Planada, California. He has an active clinical practice in HIV and TB clinics and the inpatient Infectious Diseases Consult service at San Francisco General Hospital.
