Panel: Developing HIV vaccine: Understanding the issues (Health Journalism 2011)
Speaker: Steven D. Douglas, M.D., professor and associate chair, Department of Pediatrics, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Panel description: A preventive vaccine is crucial to containing and eventually ending the HIV pandemic. However, 30 years after reports of the first cases, many would argue that we are no closer to that elusive goal. This panel will discuss the scientific, organizational and funding issues that must be addressed to move the field forward.
