The ARV Therapies and Therapeutic Strategies program is a comprehensive, independent review of the HIV Glasgow Drug Therapy Congress (HIV Glasgow 2016). This program consists of three components: (1) CME Internet Conference Review: a 1.5 hour Internet symposium that features an overview and discussion of key presentations and posters from HIV Glasgow 2016, selected by the expert faculty discussants; (2) Rapid-Fire Review of HIV Glasgow 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 of HIV Drug Therapy/Glasgow 2016: case-based clinic meetings during which the key data are reviewed, discussed and applied to patient care.
The Rapid-Fire Review of HIV Glasgow 2016 features our national faculty panel briefly reviewing the most essential information and data from HIV Glasgow 2016. This activity will enable participating health care providers caring for HIV-infected patients to become aware of and understand the data presented at this important conference and appropriately utilize those data to improve patient care.
All online components of the program can be accessed at www.viraled.com.
