Our HIV research at the IAS 2025 Conference on HIV Science in Kigali

01 Jul 2025

Researchers from the MRC Clinical Trials Unit at UCL, alongside international partners, will present their latest findings on HIV trials at the 13th International AIDS Society (IAS) Conference on HIV Science. The conference will be held in Kigali, Rwanda, and online from Sunday 13 to Thursday 17 July 2025.

Our HIV trials will be featured in both oral presentations and poster sessions at the main IAS conference, as well as at the International Workshop on Pediatrics & HIV 2025, a pre-conference event taking place on Friday 11 and Saturday 12 July.

The IAS Conference is one of the most influential global forums for HIV research, bringing together scientists, policymakers, and advocates to share advances in clinical, basic, and operational HIV science.

A full list of MRC CTU at UCL presentations at both the main conference and pre-conference workshops is available below.
