Toren has sought opportunities to serve as a link between different communities- be they different in age, language, socio-economic status or health. In the realm of clinical research, Toren has worked to connect members of the scientific community with those communities most impacted by HIV. One of the high points of his work has been his supportive role in the successful demonstration of pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention, or PrEP. Now, Toren sees his work with the ANCHOR Study as another opportunity to help further scientific knowledge, improve health-outcomes and contribute to communities.
