About the Presenter

Dr. Avila grew up in Missoula, Montana, and spent most of her childhood playing outdoors and looking at insects under microscopes. She attended Colorado State University on a track and field scholarship while studying for her biology degree and, then, her master’s degree in biomedical science. She attended medical school at the Universidad Autonoma de Guadalajara, Mexico, where she learned to speak Spanish and met her husband Giovanni, who is a psychiatrist. She realized she still liked looking at bugs under microscopes, and after finishing internal medicine residency in Billings, Montana, decided to pursue a specialty in infectious diseases. Dr. Avila completed her ID fellowship at the University of Alabama at Birmingham in June 2020 and joined the UArizona Division of Infectious Diseases in September 2020. Her scholarly activity has focused on treatment of infections in patients who inject drugs, and she is particularly interested in new approaches to infective endocarditis and working with vulnerable patient populations. She also is the principal investigator on funding for HIV Clinical Care Programs and the Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center (PAETC).
