Summary of Meeting
This meeting will highlight the latest breakthroughs in basic HIV research, ranging from the molecular bases of HIV replication to the host genetic determinants influencing viral spread and disease susceptibility; and from the intricacy of the interaction between HIV and the immune system to the most promising progress in therapeutic development. The meeting will identify new levels of possible intervention to control the progression of HIV-induced disease and, more generally, deepen our understanding of the intimate interaction between retroelements and human hosts. Dynamism will be ensured by having concise, up-to-date talks rather than lengthy lectures, by giving ample room to speakers chosen from the abstracts, and by a close coordination with the concurrent meeting on "Prevention of HIV/AIDS". Opportunities for interdisciplinary interactions will be significantly enhanced by the concurrent meeting, which will share a keynote address and three plenary sessions with this meeting.

The objective of the workshop will be to discuss the current status of the field; determine the best approach for validating the mechanism of action of host molecules in primary cells; and, promote development of assays which recreate the activity of a cellular co-factor, or a cellular restriction, with the goal of producing a high throughput screening assay for testing chemical compound libraries.
