Palais des Congrès, Paris, France.
Room 241
Wednesday, October 15, 10:00 – 12:00
The 11th STEPS HIV Cure community-led workshop will take place on Wednesday 15 October 2024, from 10:00 to 12:00 in Paris (France) at Palais des Congrès (Room 241) ahead of the EACS 2025 conference.
The purpose of the workshop is to discuss different approaches and clinical trials to curing HIV. We will hear the perspectives of different speakers – scientists from universities, including a social researcher, a scientist from the pharmaceutical industry and a person living with HIV. The challenges met by participants in these complex trials will be addressed. There will be time for questions and discussion on key issues after presentations
This workshop is part of the official EACS 2o25 programme, and it is organised by the European AIDS Treatment Group (EATG).
