As part of her work as an NIH-Fogarty Fellow, Adzemovic is working on a randomized controlled trial that seeks to understand neurocognitive outcomes in subjects being treated for cryptococcal meningitis with oral amphotericin in comparison to IV amphotericin in Mulago and Kirrudu hospitals in Kampala, Uganda.
