| Welcome Message |
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
|
On behalf of the Organizing Committees, we with immense pleasure and pride invite you to participate in the International HIV/AIDS Conference titled: "Challenges & Insights" scheduled to be held in London from 15-17 December, 2008.
It is open to anyone interested in the global effort to control the spread of HIV/AIDS. The conference will cover all aspect of HIV and AIDS from the pathogenic mechanism, epidemiology and disease burden to prevention and treatment.
We hope that this event which will see participants from the Developed and Developing countries gathering to share information and knowledge will play a role in developing better diagnosis, treatment and preventive strategies for HIV/AIDS. There will be a special session: "Scenarios from Africa" in which victims, carers etc will tell us their stories. These we believe will reinforce our determination to find the way!
The conference will feature plenary lectures, invited lectures and contributed paper presentations (both oral and poster).
We look forward to a stimulating and rewarding event in the very friendly and cosmopolitan city of London!
Dr Anne Phiri ( Zambia ) - Chair
