A Living History of AIDS Vaccine Research with Anthony Fauci

Описание к видео A Living History of AIDS Vaccine Research with Anthony Fauci

This is the first installment in a new IAVI Report series, A Living History of AIDS Vaccine Research. Its purpose is to provide perspective on historical moments in the quest for a vaccine, as well as insight into what lies ahead, as told by some of the leading researchers and policymakers in the field. Kicking off this series is Anthony Fauci, who has served as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) for the past 25 years.

Fauci has been immersed in the AIDS pandemic ever since the first cases were described 28 years ago. He was involved in the development of the first antiretrovirals to treat HIV infection and has played a pivotal role in AIDS vaccine research and development—from his early decision not to fund the first Phase III trial of an AIDS vaccine candidate to establishing the Vaccine Research Center at NIAID. Hes been one of the most vocal advocates and ardent supporters of the need for an AIDS vaccine and oversees a budget of US$460 million dedicated to AIDS vaccine research and development, 30% of NIAIDs overall HIV/AIDS budget.
