International AIDS Conference Coverage

published on July 15, 2011

The 6th International AIDS Society Conference on HIV Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention (IAS 2011) was held in Rome, Italy from July 17-20. The conference, the biggest open scientific AIDS conference in the world, featured numerous presentations on Treatment as Prevention.

The event was organized by the IAS, in partnership with Istituto Superiore di Sanità (Italian National Institute of Health), which is the leading technical and scientific body of the Italian National Health Service.

The conference is held every two years, and attracts more than 5,000 delegates from all over the world. It is a unique opportunity for the world’s leading scientists, clinicians, public health experts and community leaders to examine the latest developments in HIV-related research, and to explore how scientific advances can – in very practical ways – inform the global response to HIV/AIDS.
