Researchers Unveil HIV Persistence & Reservoirs Meeting Advanced
Program
Toulon, France - April 08, 2011 -- Despite major improvements in life expectancy
and quality of life with antiretroviral therapy, today’s treatment cannot cure HIV
infection.
To try to eradicate HIV from infected individuals, researchers must figure
out where the virus hides and how persistent infection is established in these sites.
They have also to screen and test new kinds of drugs able to reach HIV in its
‘dormant’ state.
The prospect of efficiently controlling HIV persistence in infected persons without
permanent antiretroviral therapy is the hard task a group of researchers has
addressed since 2003.
By organizing every 2-year the “International Workshop on
HIV Persistence, Reservoirs & Eradication Strategies”, they sum-up their current
advances in the field.
The Steering Committee has just announced the preliminary program of the next
edition of the workshop, to be held December 6-9, 2011.
