CROI 2021: Community HIV cure workshops online

Simon Collins, HIV i-Base

For many years, a group of HIV community activists in the US have organised a two-day workshop linked to CROI.

These excellent meeting feature key research that will be presented at the main conference.

They also do this in an informal setting that is ideal to both meet the researchers and other community activists interested in cure research.

This year the programme included several shorter virtual workshops (one to be after CROI on 16 March). Free registration is still available for the post-CROI workshop.
