The European AIDS Conference

The European AIDS Conference is a biennial conference which aims to bring together scientists from all over Europe to share the latest research on clinical aspects of HIV.

“With the landscape of HIV and AIDS continually evolving, the 17th European AIDS Conference, drawing on the best and latest science, will be at the forefront of helping you translate these developments into daily clinical practice. We plan to create not only a stimulating scientific programme but also an innovative space where you can meet, learn and share science and experiences with fellow clinicians.” Prof. Jürgen Rockstroh, EACS President and EACS Conference Co-Chair and Prof. Manuel Battegay, Local Conference Co-Chair.

This year’s conference will feature research on:

  • Integrase inhibitors and weight gain
  • STIs in the era of PrEP and U=U (‘Undetectable equals Untransmittable’)
  • PrEP use in Europe
  • Simplifying antiretroviral treatment
  • New European treatment guidelines.
