CSDE Affiliate Engi Attia co-authored a recent article in the Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome that tested the effects of Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) on children in Kenya.

The research suggests that for children with PHIV, those who received ART in their first twelve months of infancy had preserved lung function as they grew older.
