amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research
amfAR plays a vital role in AIDS research, identifying critical gaps in our knowledge of HIV and AIDS, and supporting groundbreaking studies that often lack the preliminary data required by more traditional funders.
$1 million in grants awarded to four research teams─including one led by a Nobel laureate─will support pioneering studies in the search for a cure.
An amfAR symposium on November 29 brought together leading scientists, advocates, journalists, and one extraordinary “patient” to discuss the holy grail of AIDS research: a cure.
New research findings amounted to solid progress on HIV prevention and treatment, and renewed hope for a cure.
This grant program supports collaborative teams of biomedical researchers exploring strategies for eradicating HIV infection.
The work of many amfAR grantees were shared at the prestigious 19th annual Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) in Seattle March 5−8.
An amfAR grantee is attempting to break the formidable barrier presented by latent HIV infection.
