Coordinated Action on Host-Virus Interactions: Basic and Translational HIV Research (CA41)
This Coordinated Action drives research into the mechanisms regulating HIV replication and persistence, the induction of effective immune responses and remission of infection through patient cohorts and animal models, with the aim of developing curative therapies.
Last updated on 11 December 2024
In brief
Missions:
- Ensure scienctific facilitation for basic and translational HIV research
- Determine scientific priorities and needs
- Discuss ANRS MIE priorities and unite the community around specific topics
- Help set up new French and international collaborations and networks
- Act as a bridge between basic and clinical research
- Encourage interdisciplinary interaction
- Support the preparation of calls for proposals in France and abroad and act as a lever for project funding
- Support the careers of the younger generation
Activities
- Scientific facilitation around priority topics, including the CA41 annual symposium and joint meetings with other Coordinated Actions (CA42, CA44)
