HIV prevention in teens
Laurie J. Bauman, professor of pediatrics and director of the Preventive Intervention Research Center at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, will visit the campus Tuesday and Wednesday, May 16 and 17.
On Wednesday, Bauman will deliver the 14th annual Warren Weiswasser Lecture. Titled "Behavior Change to Prevent HIV Transmission Among Teens," Bauman's talk will begin at noon in the Fitkin Amphitheatre, 15 York St. Bauman will also be giving Grand Rounds at the Child Study Center on Tuesday, 1-2 p.m. in the Donald Cohen Conference Room. She will discuss "Living with Mothers Living with HIV/AIDS: Understanding Child Mental Health."
Bauman has conducted multiple National Institutes of Health-funded studies and randomized trials that applied sociological theory to the prevention of mental health problems secondary to physical conditions in children and their parents. She is currently principal investigator of three community-based randomized trials on HIV prevention with youth, and recently began a National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)-funded study of adolescent couples.
Bauman was the 1991 recipient of the Lela Rowland Award from the National Mental Health Association, and currently serves on the planning board of the NIMH annual conference on the Role of Families in Preventing and Adapting to HIV/AIDS.
The Warren Weiswasser Lecture series was established by friends and family of Warren Weiswasser, a former fellow at the Yale Child Study Center and deputy director of the Community Health Care Plan. The lectureship highlights social and behavioral issues related to children.
