About Me: Dr. Landovitz joined the CARE Center in 2006 after training at Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women's Hospital, and Massachusetts General Hospital. He also served as medical co-director for the Vietnam CDC Harvard Medical School AIDS Partnership in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. He is an infectious disease and HIV clinician with both a clinical and research interest in HIV prevention, particularly the use of chemoprophylaxis as part of HIV prevention - PrEP, PEP, and microbicides. He additionally studies the impact of such prevention interventions on risk behavior. He heads the Los Angeles County PEP Demonstration Project, collaborates with the City and County of Los Angeles, Friends Community Center, and works in the ACTG, HPTN and ATN clinical trials networks. He was awarded the John Carey Young Investigator Award by the ACTG in June, 2010. He is an indoor cycling instructor, beaming father of a dachshund/mini-pinscher named Tyson, and is proud of an encyclopedic knowledge of Broadway musical theater.

AIDS
HIV and AIDS
AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This kills or impairs cells of the immune system and progressively destroys the body's ability to fight infections and certain cancers. HIV is most commonly spread by sexual contact with an infected partner. Another important means of spreading HIV is contact with infected blood from contaminated needles, syringes, or other drug paraphernalia.
