Adolescent Science Committee

The goal of the Adolescent Science Committee is to develop and review concepts for HIV prevention science for adolescents and young people (approximately 10-24 years old people) by providing guidance and input on HPTN research. We aim to ensure that the Network’s research portfolio is inclusive of adolescents, that research involving this population is tailored to their needs and addresses topics that are important to move forward the field of HIV prevention (and related topics) for adolescents and young people globally.
