Dr. Athe Tsibris completed his medical degree at the University of South Florida, his Medicine residency and Chief Residency at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, and then entered the combined Infectious Disease Fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts.
He performed his postdoctoral work in the laboratory of Daniel Kuritzkes, MD, where he focused on the mechanisms of HIV-1 escape from CCR5 antagonism. Dr. Tsibris is now an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School who works as an Infectious Disease physician scientist and runs an active molecular virology lab that studies the fundamental biology and dynamics of HIV reservoirs.
Athe and his lab leverage innovative experimental approaches to better understand HIV-1 and HIV-2 persistence and use these insights to design and test novel strategies to eliminate latently HIV-infected cells. Currently, Athe chairs a national study of a first-in-human trispecific broadly neutralizing antibody against HIV. Locally, Athe heads the HIV Eradication and Latency (HEAL) cohort and chairs Brigham’s COVID Implementation Committee, a group that facilitates the efficient and fair enrollment of Brigham inpatients into open and enrolling COVID-related clinical trials. He is committed, through work with the Harvard Center for AIDS Research, to the mentoring and career development of the next generation of HIV scientists.

Athe was perhaps my favorite doctor that I've encountered that I can remember. He was kind, funny, understanding, detailed, helpful, and enjoyable to work with. We would recommend him to anyone.

My experience was incredible! I am preparing for a study abroad trip to Africa in a few weeks, and was able to get the required and recommended vaccines and medications in a timely manner. Dr. Tsibris is incredibly knowledgeable about his practice, and went above and beyond to answer any and all questions I had, knowing exactly where I would be traveling and what the best health practices I should be following. 10/10 all around!!!

Dr. Tsibris was AMAZING. The desk staff and nurse were AMAZING. I was a little anxious and they ALL were thoughtful and kind and so very nice and understanding. Dr. Tsibris was very knowledgeable and prepared and took me seriously and provided very helpful information. I appreciated his clear opinions so it was easy to make a decision about my care. I of course want to make my own decisions but am grateful when a provider gives clear thoughts/opinions based on science and their experience; depending on the circumstances sometimes the answer is more clear cut than other times and here I appreciated receiving a clear answer to a clear cut situation.

Everyone at the clinic was super friendly and kind. I was in a bad mood that and I left feeling positive (even though I had just gotten 3 shots ahah). I was also impressed by how each provider patiently listened to my concerns which I really appreciated and that's why wanted to leave an elaborate feedback :) Thank you!
