Basic science and translational clinical studies on HIV cure

Catherine Kegakilwe Koofhethile is a principal research scientist and principal investigator at Botswana Harvard Health Partnership (BHP). She completed her postdoctoral fellowship from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and is a collaborating research fellow at the Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT and Harvard. Her research involves assessment of the genetic composition of HIV proviral reservoir in adolescents from Botswana living with HIV receiving long-term ART, alongside characterizing the role of T- and NK cells in the same cohort. She is leading BHP’s adolescent HIV cure research and supports building capacity as a research and development manager.

Biologist and PhD Candidate at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA). PhD fellow at Institute for Biomedical Research on Retroviruses and AIDS (INBIRS, UBA-CONICET), Buenos Aires, Argentina. Teaching Assistant in Virology at the Department of Microbiology, Parasitology and Immunology, School of Medicine, UBA.

I am an early career researcher and a PhD candidate working at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine. I am am involved in various ongoing research projects which aim to better understand HIV-1 infection and latency at a molecular level.
