General Admission
The NIH-funded R13 “HIV & Aging: From Mitochondria to Metropolis” conference will bring together leading scientists, educators, and clinicians working in the fields of gerontology and HIV-related studies to explore the basic science, clinical, and socio-behavioral aspects of aging. Register for General Admission
Pre-conference Mentoring Workshop
A pre-conference mentoring workshop will be held on the first day of the conference for early career faculty, new investigators, and postdoctoral fellows with identified research topics at the intersection of HIV and aging. Some pilot data for a planned application for research support would be a plus, but it is not a requirement. Separate registration is required for the workshop.
