Information

The workshop is addressed to professionals who are in charge of HIV-infected patients to offer them a better management approach, by preventing various comorbidities and improving the patients’ clinical evolution, quality of life and satisfaction. This workshop is therefore aimed not only to healthcare professionals but also to researchers, representatives from educational institutions and academia, as well as pharmaceutical industry.

Its objective is to review HPV (human papillomavirus) in the context of HIV infection, explore the latest research in HPV science and vaccinology in both males and females and offer highly tailored practical sessions directed to professionals who regularly attend people infected by HIV and are interested in implementing their own anal cancer screening program on patients with higher risk of HPV infection.
