How will the current research advancements in long-acting ART affect clinicians’ ability to provide better care for their patients with HIV? The recent data show that the low uptake and adherence to PrEP may be largely due to the pill burden and potential stigma of daily dosing.

The primary health concern for all individuals living with HIV should be managing their disease, particularly maintaining adherence to their ART treatment. Yet for many, the more immediate demands of their substance use disorder — whether for stimulants and/or opioids — take precedence and can readily become the central focus of their lives. What signals can help a clinician recognize a substance use disorder? How can they differentiate a clinical SUD from intermittent (even though harmful) substance use? What evidence-based treatments should they consider?

Giving birth and raising a family. For many people with MS, the path to achieving those goals contains more questions than answers. Questions about timing — which should come first, pregnancy or disease stability on a DMT? Questions about genetics — can MS be passed on to the baby? Questions about fertility — is in vitro fertilization safe and effective, and how much does it increase disease activity? Questions their treating clinicians may not be able to answer with the most current research.
