HIV R4P is the only global scientific conference focused exclusively on the challenging and fast-growing field of HIV prevention research. This conference fosters interdisciplinary knowledge exchange on HIV vaccines, microbicides, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), treatment as prevention and biomedical interventions, as well as their social and behavioral implications.

 

Council researchers will present our latest research related to the dapivirine vaginal ring, multipurpose prevention technologies, and other HIV prevention technologies.

 

More activities will be added as details are finalized, so please check back in mid-September.
