SMARTT Study Research Highlights
The SMARTT Study Research Highlights resources commemorates the SMARTT study reaching a major milestone of enrolling over 5,000 children from across the country in 2023! These participants and their families have helped us advance the science of understanding exposure to antiretrovirals and HIV in the womb by attending study visits, donating blood and tissue samples, answering surveys, and many other ways. We thank our participants, community groups, site staff, and researchers for the dedication, effort, and commitment to this important research, which has helped shape our understanding of and improve care for families affected by HIV.
