CROI 2013 Session 2
j Sunday, 9 am-1:30 pm; B406
Session 1–Workshop
New Investigators and Trainees
The purpose of this workshop is to educate and engage new
investigators and trainees, to spark interest in the field, to provide
opportunities for interaction among trainees and faculty, and to
orient trainees to the science being presented at the conference.
Presentations will be geared toward new trainees (e.g.,undergraduate
students, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and physician
fellows) and new investigators (both international and domestic)
who have been conducting active research in the field for less
than 3 years. Priority will be given to awardees from the young
investigator, international scholar, and community educator
programs. Other CROI registrants may attend the workshop (on a
space available basis). Boxed lunches will be available for awardees
only. No pre-registration is required.
The format is designed to be interactive. Each presenter will provide
a state-of-the-art summary of a major area of HIV investigation
being covered at the conference and end by outlining the top 3 to 5
research questions in the field from his/her perspective. The floor
will then be open for audience questions and discussion.
