The 10th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections is a scientifically focused meeting of the world's leading researchers working to understand, prevent, and treat HIV/AIDS and its complications.

The goal of the Retrovirus Conference is to provide a forum for translating laboratory and clinical research into medical applications.

The subjects that will be highlighted are: virology, immunology, vaccines, pathogenesis (disease mechanisms in humans and animal models), primary/acute infection, antiretroviral therapy (preclinical, clinical, complications, immune-based therapies, and treatment strategies), neuropathogenesis and neurologic complications, opportunistic infections, hepatitis virus co-infections, epidemiology and infection control, pediatrics/maternal-fetal studies, HIV infection in women/women’s health, diagnostics, microbicides, clinical pharmacology and HIV drug resistance.

The meeting will feature the Eighth Annual Bernard Fields Memorial Lecture, a special Keynote Lecture, 8 plenary lectures that will be highly scientific in nature, 10 roundtable symposia that will present and debate controversial scientific issues, several hundred original oral abstract and poster presentations of new data, and late breakers that will consist of important preliminary research findings.
