The Jeong Lab aims to promote healthy aging and the quality of life for older adults with multiple chronic conditions and stigmatized identities, especially those aging with HIV, by better understanding the links between social connection and health outcomes. The Jeong Lab is committed to practices that promote transparent, robust, generalizable, and replicable science, and an inclusive scientific community.
