AIDS 2020
At the AIDS 2020 conference, HPTN researchers presented 18 abstracts covering HPTN 068, HPTN 069, HPTN 071, HPTN 074, HPTN 078, HPTN 083, HPTN 084, and the HPTN Modelling Centre. The HPTN Scholars Program will host a satellite session entitled “The Next Generation of Emerging Leaders of Color in the HIV Prevention Landscape,” featuring three presentations from current and past scholars with a Q&A session to follow. A second satellite session, entitled “Spotlight on Zambia PopART (HPTN 071-2) Phylogenetics Study,” includes presentations from four researchers discussing different study results aspects.
HPTN members also hosted two virtual booths: one in the exhibition space and the other in the Global Village. Each featured information about the Network, our community engagement efforts, as well as current studies and those in development.
