He is currently the principal investigator of "Entre Herman@s," an NIH-funded, randomized controlled trial to test a sibling-based intervention to increase HIV PrEP-use among Latinx men who have sex with men. He is also the recipient of a K01 career development award to explore strategies for engaging the families of Latinx MSM in HIV prevention efforts.
