Please join the Forum for Collaborative HIV Research for our open public meeting on June 23rd, 2010, from 10am to 5pm at the Doubletree Hotel, Washington, DC. The meeting will be focused on cardiovascular disease risk in patients on HIV treatment. Panelists, including experts from regulatory agencies, academia, industry and community groups will address:
-- Pathophysiology of Cardiovascular Disease: Impact of traditional risk factors, aging, inflammation, chronic infection and pharmaceutical intervention.
-- Use of clinical trials and observational studies to identify the contribution of various risk factors to risk of cardiovascular disease in patient subgroups - how do we identify those at risk and which factor is operative?
-- Application of our understanding of risk factors and clinical studies to the care of individual patients, in the development of clinical guidelines and product labeling - how do we identify what risk factors are at work, how to intervene and how to counsel?
There will be plenty of time for Q and A, and open discussion.
