Tetiana Povshedna

Tetiana Povshedna is a PhD student in Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (Côté Lab). Her research with the British Columbia CARMA-CHIWOS Collaboration (BCC3; https://hivhearme.ca/) study focuses on better understanding factors that affect aging in women living with HIV. Specifically, she is interested in how chronic/latent viral infections, inflammation, chronic pain, and cellular markers of aging relate to estimated risk of comorbidity development/progression and mortality. She is also interested in bridging the gap between research and community by communicating personalized research results back to the BCC3 study participants as a part of her UBC Public Scholarship Initiative project.
