The ARV Therapies and Therapeutic Strategies program is a comprehensive, independent review of the 21st International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2016). This program consists of three components: (1) CME Internet Symposium:AIDS 2016 Expert Review: a 1.5 hour Internet symposium that features an overview and discussion of key presentations and posters, selected by the expert faculty discussants; (2) Rapid-Fire Review of AIDS 2016: a podcast that provides a brief, audio summary of the most essential data presented at the conference; and (3) From Conference to Clinic: Reviewing and Applying Data From AIDS 2016: case-based dinner meetings during which the key data are reviewed, discussed and applied to patient care.
From Conference to Clinic: Reviewing and Applying Data From AIDS 2016 is an interactive, case-based dinner program series designed to highlight and discuss the clinical significance and application of new findings in HIV medicine presented at AIDS 2016. Because the focus of the dinner programs will be on case studies and applying the data presented at AIDS 2016 in a clinical setting, prior to attending a dinner program participants will be asked to view the CME Internet Symposium: AIDS 2016 Expert Review, which will familiarize them with the AIDS 2016 data and serve as a comprehensive conference overview and summary. As a result of this blended learning approach, participants will gain an increased understanding of key data presented at AIDS 2016 and be better prepared to address their HIV patients' health needs and provide optimal care in a clinical setting.
All online components of the program will be accessible at www.viraled.com

This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of Postgraduate Institute for Medicine and ViralEd, Inc. The Postgraduate Institute for Medicine is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
The Postgraduate Institute for Medicine designates this live activity for a maximum of 2.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
As of August 1, 2013, pharmaceutical companies are required by the open payments act (AKA Sunshine Act) to account for certain transfers of value provided to physicians. The federal guidance for the Sunshine Act provides exceptions for CME expenses that meet certain criteria. We believe the program to which you are invited meets these exceptions, and therefore we will not be collecting, nor reporting, any information gathered from this program. If federal guidance is further clarified in the future, we will then pro vide that information to the supporting pharmaceutical companies to the best of our ability.
The Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM) requires instructors, planners, managers and other individuals who are in a position to control the content of this activity to disclose any real or ap parent conflict of interest (COI) they may have as related to the content of this activity. All identified COI are thoroughly vetted and resolved according to PIM policy. The existence or absence of COI for everyone in a position to control content will be disclosed to participants prior to the start of each activity.
