Dr. Krupa Shah is Assistant Professor and a board-certified geriatrician in the Department of Medicine and the Department of Orthopaedics. She completed her residency training at Baylor College of Medicine and her geriatric medicine fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis. Her clinical responsibilities involve caring not only for the general older adult population, but also for HIV-infected older individuals.
Dr. Shah's current research involves investigating issues relating to HIV and Aging with a focus on prevention and management of frailty. Her research in this area has been in part supported by the University's Developmental Center for AIDS Research (D-CFAR). Dr. Shah also has a research interest with respect to reversing age-related decline in physical function among frail older adults with sarcopenic obesity.
Her research in both areas has been appreciated by the scientific community. Dr. Shah has been invited to speak at local and national conferences. She routinely presents her research at national conferences and symposiums. Her work has been published in leading peer-reviewed journals such as the New England Journal of Medicine, the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society and the Journal of AIDS and Clinical Research.
Dr. Shah has received several awards from national and local organizations. The American Geriatrics Society, for example, has honored her with the Merck/AGS New Investigator Award. She has received multiple awards from the NIH-funded Center for AIDS Research. Most recently, she was accepted into the NIH-sponsored Early Career Reviewer Program and was named as a KL2 Scholar by the University's NIH-funded CTSI.
