International researchers from both basic science and clinical science combine their efforts to accelerate testing of new strategies aimed at eradicating HIV.
StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-Market Press Release – December 9, 2010 11:06 am – A group of reputed international scientists well known in their respective fields have come together to try and seek solutions so that AIDS could be treated. The group of scientists have made their intentions clear, they want to eradicate the threat of HIV by the next decade.The team includes researchers, biologists and clinicians that are all united by the cause of eradicating AIDS. They will conduct extensive researches and tests to find out the strategies for combating HIV. The team includes Alain Lafeuillade who hails from Department of Infectious Diseases, General Hospital in Toulon in France. Some of the other scientists in the group include Jose Alcami, Monsef Benkirane, Nicolas Chomont, Magnus Gisslen, Franck Maldarelli, David Margolis, etc. All these scientists are not only from different parts of the world but they also hold expertize in different streams of studies on HIV.
The group have been working on the concept whereby AIDS will have a drug free remission. At present cure for AIDS requires life long administration of drugs. The HIV resides in viral reservoirs and they rekindle as soon as the medication is stopped. The scientists will look to study the viral reservoirs minutely and find out drugs that will reach the HIV in its latent state. In the last 2 years there have been many breakthroughs in the eradication of AIDS. If the goal of getting a cure for AIDS is to be realized in the next decade then the scientists will have to work overtime on their research.
