HIV 2011 - 2nd International Workshop on HIV & Aging

It is our great pleasure to announce the 2nd International Workshop on HIV & Aging, to be held at the Renaissance Baltimore Harbourplace Hotel, Baltimore, MD, USA, on 27-28 October 2011.

With an aging HIV-infected population - and suggestions that HIV itself may cause conditions normally associated with aging - there is a pressing need for more scientific dialog on this topic. This workshop presents a unique and much needed platform for international scientific exchange on the increasingly recognized problems of HIV and aging.

The workshop will gather a cross-disciplinary team of experts and trainees involved in HIV and aging research, in order to present and discuss the latest developments and strategies for the future, in an interactive and science - focused setting.

The meeting will have a two day program consisting of invited lectures, abstract-driven scientific presentations and poster sessions. The latest developments will be reviewed and evaluated in order to identify important topics for future research, develop better approaches to treatment, and create a strategic agenda for future management problems associated with HIV and aging.

We invite you to attend the 2nd International Workshop on HIV & Aging and encourage you to submit abstracts on your research in this field.

We hope to see you in Baltimore!

On behalf of the Organizing Committee,

Charles Flexner MD, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, USA
