International AIDS Conference 2012: CDC Releases

The XIX International AIDS Conference, in Washington D.C., will take place from July 22-July 27. This is the premier gathering for those working in the field of HIV, as well as policy makers, persons living with HIV and other individuals committed to ending the pandemic. It is a chance to assess where we are, evaluate recent scientific developments and lessons learned, and collectively chart a course forward.
