Immunological Aspects of Aids, 1989-12-04 - 1989-12-07

 File

Scope and Contents

The Immunological Aspects of AIDS meeting provided an opportunity for researchers to determine what progress has been made in this field and what topics require special attention. The primary target of HIV is the immune system, and it might be expected that by now there would be a clear understanding of how the virus produces an immunodeficient state. Such an understanding may be a prerequisite for designing efficient and safe vaccines. However, the difficulties of working with complex cell-culture systems or with animals make progress in this vital area of research frustratingly slow.
