Kathryn Anastos, M.D.Kathryn Anastos, M.D., is the Executive Co-Director for Clinical and Scientific Programs of WE-ACTx (Women's Equity in Access to Care and Treatment, a community-based organization committed to providing HIV primary care, including antiretroviral therapy, to female survivors of genocidal rape in Rwanda. She has also developed and serves as the Principal Investigator of the Rwandan Women's Cohort Study (RWISA), funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH). She is currently Professor of Medicine, Epidemiology and Population Health at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, N.Y. Additionally, since 1993, Dr. Anastos has served as the Principal Investigator for the New York City/Bronx Consortium of the Women's Interagency HIV Study (WIHS), also funded by NIH.

Cal Cohen, M.D., M.S.Dr. Cal Cohen is the research director of Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates and Community Research Initiative of New England in Boston, Mass. He is also a clinical instructor at Harvard Medical School. In addition, he works as an HIV clinical management consultant and internist at Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. Dr. Cohen holds appointments at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Beth Israel Hospital, both in Boston, Mass. In addition to caring for HIV-infected patients and directing clinical research at a large HIV community-based research site, Dr. Cohen is actively involved in evaluating new antiretroviral therapies, the durability and longevity of the benefits from such therapies and issues regarding compliance and adherence. Dr. Cohen has served as a consultant to or has received honoraria or research support from Abbott Laboratories, Boehringer-Ingelheim, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Gilead Sciences, GlaxoSmithKline and Tibotec.

David Wohl, M.D. Dr. Wohl is an associate professor of medicine at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and co-directs HIV services for the North Carolina Department of Corrections. Dr. Wohl is an investigator in the NIAID-sponsored AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG) and a member of the ACTG Complications of HIV Disease Research Agenda Committee. His research focuses on metabolic and infectious complications of HIV and its therapies, as well as issues related to medication adherence and access to care—particularly among incarcerated inmates with HIV infection. Dr. Wohl has served as a consultant to or has received honoraria or research support from Abbott Laboratories, Boehringer Ingelheim, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Gilead, Merck & Co, Roche Laboratories and Tibotec.
