6th IAS Conference on HIV Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention

Held every two years, the IAS Conference on HIV Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention took place this year in Rome, July 17-20. The 2011 conference had a program that included many sessions on a range of HIV-related topics. AVAC compiled a roadmap that included the range of HIV prevention research-related sessions planned for the conference.

You may download a PDF of the roadmap here (both detailed and abridged versions).
