Journal Club 1/3: The impact of comorbidities, depression, and substance use problems on quality of life among older adults living with HIV
The first session of the Fall 2025 Journal Club Series will focus on how comorbidities, depression, and substance use serve as key health indicators and how they are linked with quality of life among older adults living with HIV. Learn how to: Read and analyze health research; Understand the prevalence of comorbid conditions, depression, and substance use among older adults living with HIV; Identify key predictors associated with lower quality of life in a target population; Recognize how comorbidities, depression, and substance use independently and collectively affect health outcomes; Discuss how integrated care using a biopsychosocial approach can improve quality of life for older adults living with HIV. Who Will Benefit: Students from all majors are welcome to attend. Students will need to read the selected article in advance of our session. The Journal Club seeks to engage with a wide range of students including non-science majors as well as those having science backgrounds.
