Jeffrey Martin, MD, MPH

Dr. Martin received his undergraduate degree from the Johns Hopkins University, his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, and his Master's degree in public health (Epidemiology) from the University of California, Berkeley. He served as Intern, Resident and Chief Resident in the Department of Medicine and Fellow in the Division of Infectious Diseases, all at UCSF, prior to joining the faculty of the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics.

His principal interest is in the epidemiology of human herpesvirus 8 (Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus) and its relationship to Kaposi's Sarcoma. He is also actively investigating several HIV-related questions including the long-term consequences of treatment with highly active antiretroviral medications among HIV-infected individuals, the feasibility of providing post-exposure prophylaxis for sexual and recreational drug use exposure to HIV, and an intervention to enhance adherence with anti-retroviral medications among HIV-infected persons.
