Development of Gender and Sexuality
Overview and list of investigators working in this area of research
In line with the HIV Center's focus on gender and sexuality, several researchers undertake studies in the development of gender and sexuality. Dr. Heino Meyer-Bahlburg has
an ongoing research program on the developmental psychobiology of gender and
sexuality, which program focuses on understanding the role of biological and social
factors in the normal development of gender and sexuality and their variants.
Other investigators integrate studies of gender and sexuality into many components of their research. Dr. Miguel Munoz-Laboy is currently studying gender, power and Latino men's HIV risk in the New York City area. Likewise in recent years, Dr. Theo Sandfort has studied expressions of sexuality in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly among men who have sex with men and women who have sex with women.
