Current perspectives and emerging directions in research and practice: highlights from the 15th Annual International Workshop on Aging and HIV

The 15th Annual International Workshop on Aging and HIV (October 24-25, 2024) centered on integrating aging-related science into HIV research and care and aimed to advance interdisciplinary exchange and identify actionable priorities for research and practice. This article summarizes keynote presentations on geroscience-informed aging mechanisms; clinical manifestations of aging with HIV, including frailty, neurocognitive impairment, and perinatally acquired HIV; polypharmacy; scalable geriatric-HIV care models and implementation; and career development. It identifies priorities for advancing the field, including geroscience-informed trials, frailty and cognitive screening, deprescribing, scalable geriatric-HIV care models, and research addressing aging challenges in perinatally acquired HIV.
