NIAID to convene HIV Vaccine Summit
Date:3/20/2008

What: On Tuesday, March 25, 2008, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, will host an HIV Vaccine Summit in Bethesda, Md. as an important step in the ongoing process to examine the current direction of HIV vaccine research. Through interactive panel discussions, NIAID and the scientific community will explore

  • The optimal balance between vaccine discovery research and development studies designed to advance promising vaccine candidates into clinical trials

  • How to optimize and utilize non-human primate models to support vaccine research

  • How best to integrate clinical research with vaccine discovery efforts

Based on the panel discussions, NIAID is seeking specific recommendations on the types of research to foster and how to attract novel vaccine research ideas.

Media registration to attend the summit in-person has closed; however, media are invited to watch the summit during a live Webcast.

When: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 8:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. EST
