Second Annual Conference on Women & HIV
Translating Research Into Practice
December 4, 2003
New York City
New developments are occurring rapidly in our knowledge of HIV disease in Women. Recent research has shown gender differences in women: women progress more rapidly at lower HIV viral loads. A number of issues have become complex clinical problems: treatment of STD’s especially HPV, management of women who are pregnant or who intend to conceive and the effect of the antiretroviral medications on the developing fetus and long-term prognosis of the mother, multiple drug interactions of anti-retroviral medications with Hormone Replacement Therapy, and the treatment of existing and emerging HIV related co-morbidities, especially HCV.

The goal of this course is to disseminate recent research findings and clinical guidelines on the treatment of HIV in women, the prevention of peri-natal transmission of HIV and other viral co-infections, the treatment of women co-infected with Hepatitis C and other existing and emerging HIV related co-morbidities, interactions and side effects of antiretroviral therapies, and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases including cervical and rectal HPV infection.
