Contraception and STI/HIV: Balancing the Tradeoffs in Different Contexts
by Ward Cates, MD, MPH
AUGUST 29, 2012, 11:30AM-12:30PM ET
Ward Cates is President Emeritus and Distinguished Scientist at FHI 360.

Dr Cates has authored or co-authored over 450 scientific publications. He is co-author of 10 editions of Contraceptive Technology and a past co-editor of Sexually Transmitted Diseases, 2nd edition.
