Our Year 2 Scientific Advisory Board / Annual Meeting was a time to reflect on our accomplishments thus far and to strategize for the road ahead. The science is exciting and the future is bright as we continue to strive for an #hivcure, along with our community and NIH partners.
Very grateful and honored to receive the 2023 German AIDS Award by the German AIDS Society. Thank you to all our study participants, my fantastic mentors @marinacaskey1@NussenzweigL and the entire team @RockefellerUniv@ChariteBerlin 🙏
Back in person for CROI 2023, with two popular poster presentations by @AdamWard333 and @talia_mota, and an outstanding presentation by Noemi Linden! @REACHforthecure#HIVcure@WCM_IMP
Fantastic workshop on the identification of correlates of protection for (Covid) vaccines at the European Plotkin Institute for Vaccinology in Antwerp. 2 days of important discussions between clinicians, immunologists, virologists and regulators. Thank you to the organizers! 👏
Just another day at #CROI 2023! Our very own @talia_mota and Sarah Gowanlock with Dr. Fauci!! There are some great talks lined up for this week!

Congratulations to Dr. @RiaGoswami8 on being promoted to Assistant Professor of Virology in Pediatrics! Dr. Goswami’s research is focused on the interactions of the infant gastrointestinal microbiome w/ vertically-transmitted viruses, such as HIV and CMV. https://t.co/5OMqKf86gT
Meet Thinh Huynh! Our newest Technician in the Jones Lab and @REACHforthecure member! Learning IPDAs: helping to design primers for IPDA failures and follow-up with predesign of 3dPCR. Already facing the viral diversity issue inherent in HIV cure.
Come see my talk titled: Silence and Resistance in HIV Reservoir Persistence

Single-cell multiomics by an exceptional student @JACollora: HIV persists by hiding in proliferative cytotoxic CD4+ T cell clones driven by antigen & TNF. Granzyme B inhibitor Serpin B9 may shield HIV-infected CD4+ CTLs from CD8+ CTL killing @ImmunityCP

Congratulations to our own @LindenNoemi for winning one of two best poster awards at the @WCM_IMP retreat!! "CD8+ T-cell mediated selection enriches for HIV integration site features and expanded clones in vitro" @WCM_ID#hivcure
It was a joy to work with this great team and contribute to this exciting result. See Jesper's thread below for the highlights. #hivcure@REACHforthecure
COVID-19 vaccine exposes HIV hidden in immune cells of people with HIV, pointing to potential new tools in the development of HIV treatment for a cure, according to new findings from a team led by Dr. Brad Jones of @WCM_ID and @WCMDeptofMed.
