HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorders (HAND) presents a complex and evolving challenge in the context of HIV-1 infection and treatment. This comprehensive volume dives into the clinical manifestations, molecular and cellular mechanisms, and therapeutic strategies underlying HAND and its associated comorbidities. This book brings together cutting-edge research and clinical insights, making it an essential resource for researchers, clinicians, and students engaged in HIV-related studies and neurocognitive research. This resource also aims to advance our understanding of HAND to contribute to the development of novel diagnostic tools and therapeutic interventions for improved patient outcomes.

Dr. Hu is an Associate Professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Neuroscience at University of Nebraska Medical Center. His work is focused on mRNA biology, with the ultimate goal of elucidating their functional aspects in drug addiction, and also to identify novel therapeutic strategies that could enhance neuronal function and survival in patients afflicted with these disorders. Dr. Xiong is a Professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Neuroscience at University of Nebraska Medical Center and leader of the University of Nebraska Medical Center Neurophysiology Laboratory in the Center for Neurovirology and Neurodegenerative Disorders. He is a neuroelectrophysiologist working in the field of NeuroAIDS (the neurological complications of AIDS), which include neurocognitive impairment and HIV-associated dementia (HAD). Current research in his laboratory studies molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying HIV-1-associated cellular and synaptic dysfunction and injury, with the ultimate goal of identifying potential target(s) for the development of therapeutic strategies. Dr. Xiong is the author of Current Laboratory Methods in Neuroscience Research (Springer) and has additionally authored many book chapters. Dr. Buch is a Professor and Executive Vice-Chair of the Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Neuroscience at University of Nebraska Medical Center. Her research focuses on understanding the neuropathogenesis of HIV/SIV infection using cell culture, rodents and macaques as model systems. She is the director of the Nebraska Center for Substance Abuse Research, the mission of which is to promote and enhance drug abuse research and mentor trainees in this area. Dr. Buch is a Member of the European Academy of Sciences, and a Member of the Royal Academy of Belgium.
