Prevention of HIV/AIDS (X3)
Organizer(s) Brigitte Autran and Scott M. Hammer
March 22—27, 2009
Keystone Resort • Keystone, CO USA
Abstract Deadline: Nov 24, 2008
Late Abstract Deadline: Dec 22, 2008
Scholarship Deadline: Nov 24, 2008
Early Registration Deadline: Jan 22, 2009
Part of the Keystone Symposia Global Health Series, Supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
Joint Meeting:
HIV Immunobiology: From Infection to Immune Control (X4)
Summary of Meeting:
Most recent research efforts on the prevention of HIV and AIDS has focused on T cell-based vaccines but it is admitted this approach will not prevent HIV and needs to be strengthened by novel approaches to generate HIV neutralizing antibodies. The recent successes or failures of alternative methods of HIV prevention (e.g., microbicides, circumcision), or of AIDS prevention (therapeutic vaccines) should help better understand how HIV vaccines can be used, and require sharing basic understanding and results with the prophylactic vaccine field. However the recent negative results of a major HIV vaccine trial have substantially disorganized the field. The goals of the meeting are therefore to focus on the most recent key advances in the understanding of (1) how HIV can be controlled at entry and after infection in 3 joint sessions with the concurrent “HIV Immunobiology” meeting, (2) how T cell-based or antibody-based HIV vaccines can be improved, and (3) what are the results of the current vaccine trials and those of alternative methods of HIV or AIDS prevention and how can they help at re-orientating vaccine researches. Two workshops will provide key information on the definition of immune correlates of protection and their analysis in clinical trials.

NIAID Workshop on Identification and Validation of New Cellular Co-Factors in HIV Replication. Organized by Roger Miller and Opendra Sharma, DAIDS, NIAID. Moderators: Roger Ptak and Warner Greene.
The objective of the workshop will be to discuss the current status of the field; determine the best approach for validating the mechanism of action of host molecules in primary cells; and, promote development of assays which recreate the activity of a cellular co-factor, or a cellular restriction, with the goal of producing a high throughput screening assay for testing chemical compound libraries.
