Announcements

    MAY-17-13 Please join the Forum in congratulating Nina Mani on an exciting new career move. Nina is leaving the Forum, but she is not going far – starting June 3 she will join the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation Research, Division of Antiviral Products. That we will miss her is the understatement of the century. But the offer to join our colleagues at the FDA as a project manager presented a phenomenal opportunity – an excellent fit for her career path. We congratulate Jeff, Kim, Jules and Patrick on an excellent choice! We imagine that many of you will have the pleasure of interacting with her in her new capacity.
    MAY-10-13 We are saddened to report the death of James Goodrich, PhD, MD of ViiV Healthcare, a member of the Forum’s Executive Committee. Jim passed away unexpectedly last weekend and is survived by his wife, Carolyn and two teenage daughters. A memorial service for Jim will be held this summer on a date to be determined. Jim has been a considered and thoughtful participant on the Executive Committee. His desire to improve care for patients, direct approach and sense of humor will be missed. Please join us in keeping Jim’s family in our thoughts and prayers.
    MAY-06-13 Arthur Reingold, MD, professor of epidemiology and associate dean for research at the UC Berkeley School of Public Health, was appointed to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) by Secretary Kathleen Sebelius of the Department of Health and Human Services.

    MAY-01-13 On behalf of the HIV/AIDS community, the Forum for Collaborative HIV Research applauds the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force for acting to help the estimated 1.2 million Americans now living with HIV and especially the nearly one in five - an estimated 258,000 people - who don't know they are infected.
    APR-30-13 The USPSTF is calling for HIV screening for all Americans aged 15 to 65, regardless of whether they are considered to be at high risk, a change that may help lift some of the stigma associated with HIV testing. Read more >>

Background:

The 2010 National Summit on HIV Diagnosis, Prevention, and Access to Care (November 17-19, 2010, National Harbor, MD) is sponsored by the Forum for Collaborative HIV Research in partnership with the American Academy of HIV Medicine, the Association of Nurses in AIDS Care, HIV Medicine Association, Health Resources and Services Administration, Kaiser Permanente and the Veterans Administration.

The mission of the 2010 HIV Summit is to address and support the continued implementation of CDC's recommendations for increased HIV testing and to further identify and build upon strategies for HIV diagnosis, prevention, linkage to and retention in care. In short - to highlight the progress made in the four years since the recommendations were released and plan how to move from pilot and demonstration projects to sustainable programs.

The program is being developed under the leadership of the co-chairs Dr. John G. Bartlett (Johns Hopkins University) and Dr. Kenneth H. Mayer (Brown University) and the Scientific Planning Committee representing governmental agencies, professional societies, academia, clinical care, community and advocacy organizations and the pharmaceutical sector. The program will consist of plenary sessions at the beginning and end of the conferences. Separate tracks in Testing, Prevention, Access and Linkage to Care, and Measuring Outcomes of HIV Testing Efforts will allow in-depth discussion of these topics.

Objectives:
