Series Overview:
The Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and ViralEd are proud to announce the extension of this ground-breaking CME activity. Mirroring academic grand rounds programs, these CME-certified sessions combine traditional academic grand rounds with the innovation and convenience of telemedicine. The "HIV Grand Rounds from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania" is delivered live via the Internet weekly and archived for on-demand viewing twenty-four hours after each live broadcast.
Presentations cover the most important and current topics in HIV/AIDS and are delivered by the top experts in the field. They are designed to be immediately relevant to practicing HIV clinicians and many are case-based. The final 10 minutes of each one-hour activity consists of a question and answer period. These weekly grand rounds are intended to provide clinicians with convenient and easily accessible knowledge and clinical skills they need to provide the best medical care for their HIV-positive patients.
Each session may be broadcast via your Internet connection in your conference room or auditorium for large groups to view, or individually to your personal computer at your convenience. Simply register at www.viraled.com/grandrounds for easy access.

Disclosures:
It is policy at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and ViralEd, LLC for individuals who are in a position to control the content of an educational activity to disclose to the learners all relevant financial relationships that they have with any commercial interest that provides products or services that may be relevant to the content of this continuing medical education activity. For this purpose we consider relationships of the person involved in the CME activity to include financial relationships of a spouse or partner.

Peer review of all content was conducted for all faculty presentations whose disclosure information provided to the Penn Office of CME was found to contain relationships that created a conflict of interest relative to the topic of their presentation. In addition, all faculty were instructed to provide balanced, scientifically rigorous and evidence-based presentations.
The staff in the Office of CME at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania (Rodman Campbell, Mila Kostic, Belinda Rose, and Mindy Pollock Troy), our educational partner ViralEd, LLC (Richard Gordon, Brian Boyle, MD, JD and Ed Hettman), and the peer reviewer, Zalman Agus, MD, Associate Dean for Continuing Medical Education, have reported that they have no relevant financial relationships with any commercial interests related to the content of this educational activity.
