Join us this October 2023 for a virtual symposia series exploring the latest HIV prevention research.
How do you scale up use of CAB-LA and the vaginal ring? What are the latest developments in the quest for an effective HIV vaccine? What role can bNAbs play in HIV cure research?
You're invited to attend a series of three special virtual symposia in October 2023 that will explore these questions by bringing together the scientific community to address the biggest challenges in biomedical prevention.
IAS Governing Council and HIVR4P 2024 Organizing Committee members will host the series in which leading experts will preview some of the groundbreaking HIV prevention science you can expect at HIVR4P 2024, the 5th HIV Research for Prevention Conference.
Register now for free to join us in October 2023!
