About the Program
Program Overview
The ARV Therapies and Therapeutic Strategies program is a comprehensive, independent review of the 12th IAS Conference on HIV Science (IAS 2023). This program consists of two components: (1) CME Internet Symposium: IAS 2023 Expert Review: a CME Internet symposium that features an overview of key presentations and posters, selected by the expert faculty; and (2) Rapid-Fire Review of IAS 2023: a podcast that provides a brief, audio summary of the most essential data presented at the conference.
The CME Internet Symposium: IAS 2023 Expert Review will feature a panel of HIV experts reviewing and discussing key presentations on antiretroviral therapy presented at IAS 2023. The review and discussion will focus on HIV therapeutic options and developments, including: current treatment and management strategies, algorithms and recommendations, therapies in development, epidemiology, and diagnosis and clinical management of specific patient populations. 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.
This program is produced by the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine and ViralEd, Inc. It is not a session created by or presented at IAS 2023 and it is not sanctioned by the organizers of IAS 2023.
