Dr. Saberi is funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) through an R34 award, the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) through an R01 award, and the California HIV Research Program (CHRP) for Health Disparities. Her research includes assessing technology-based strategies such as mobile applications, video-conferencing tools, and text messaging to improve ART adherence and engagement in HIV care among youth living with HIV. She is also examining novel adherence assessment methods and an HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) tool for healthcare providers who are prescribing PrEP. Her other research involvement includes developing a technology-based tool for HIV prevention and treatment for the San Francisco Bay Area House Ball Community and Gay Families (PI: Dr. Emily Arnold). She is currently an expert consultant at the National Clinicians' Consultation Center's HIV Warmline, PEPline, and PrEPline (nccc.ucsf.edu).
