MRCCTU at UCL to present research at Workshop on HIV Pediatrics and IAS 2019

19 Jul 2019

This coming week features two significant events in the HIV/AIDS meeting calendar - the Workshop on HIV Pediatrics and IAS 2019.

The HIV Pediatrics Workshop is the only meeting entirely devoted to research in prevention and treatment of HIV infections in infants, children and adolescents, making it the premier forum for the world's leading researchers.

Sunday marks the beginning of IAS 2019, the largest open scientific conference on HIV science in the world. As the world’s largest conference on HIV and AIDS, it sits uniquely at the intersection of science, advocacy and human rights, bringing together scientists, policy makers, healthcare professionals, people living with HIV, funders, media and community. This biennial conference presents the critical advances in basic, clinical and operational HIV research that move science into policy and practice.
