Lecture | Imagine a World Without AIDS: HIV and the Threat of Viruses

Thursday, April 7, 2016, 6:00 pm

Free

The fear surrounding the HIV/AIDS epidemic, which emerged in the 1980s, persists until today. Once HIV is transmitted through body fluids, it attacks our immune system and gradually depletes our immunity causing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and if untreated, death.

In 2014, according to the World Health Organization, 35 million people worldwide were living with HIV, with 2 million AIDS-related deaths every year. An extensive research of HIV infection and pathogenesis led to the development of drugs that can hold back the disease, but once infected with HIV, a person can never be cured.

What are the chances of achieving HIV eradication and an AIDS-free world?

This talk will be presented by Dr. Natalia Freund, an HIV scientist at Rockefeller University who has been carrying out cutting-edge research on immune response during HIV infection.
