Professor Jennifer Hoy was appointed the inaugural Professor Director of HIV Medicine, Department of Infectious Diseases, Alfred Hospital and Monash University in 2008. Prior to this, she established and directed the internationally recognised Infectious Diseases Clinical Research Unit (1988-2008). Prof Hoy herself is internationally recognised for her research and expertise in HIV and comorbidities. Her significant contributions to the global HIV clinical research effort (including Principal Investigator for Australia on both the SMART and START global studies) and recognition as one of Australia’s leading influential researchers in HIV Medicine, makes her well placed to join the Fellowship.
