Our review of #IAS2023 is out in HIV Medicine! Thank you to my co-authors @tristanjbarber & Yusuf H. W. We cover a range of topics including, of course, REPRIEVE Trial doi.org/10.1111/hiv.13…


Congratulations to our PhD student Janna Jamal Eddine for being awarded the ViiV Healthcare Australia Young Investigator prize at the Melbourne World AIDS Day event. RMIT Research Doherty Institute ViiV Healthcare #hivcure #worldaidsday2023 mHIVE ACH4 Living Positive Victoria - LPV




Are CNS (brain) reservoirs transcriptionally active on #HIV treatment? Prof Melissa Churchill from RMIT University Neuroinfections Lab says yes & this can contribute to viral reactivation. Lots of evidence that an #HIVcure must consider reservoirs such as the brain. More on this later.


Sharon Lewin from Doherty Institute speaking on #HIV Persistence in the CNS and the considerations for Cure Strategies at #CROI2024



The best time of year! It's almost Day of Immunology, what will you be doing to celebrate your immune system in 2024? #DoImmuno #DayofImmunology 🧪🔬🦠

Congrats to PhD student Janna Jamal Eddine on her first author PLOS Pathogens publication. Great collab with RMIT Research Doherty Institute OHSU News #hivcure This study identified persistent HIV transcription in brain tissue from virally suppressed PWH dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…


Very happy to see Prof Melissa Churchill from RMIT University Neuroinfections Lab speaking HIV reservoirs in the brain at #HIVAIDS2024 plenary session. It’s so important to understand the implications on cognitive comorbidities and #HIVcure ASHM HIV cure




New research shows HIV continues to transcribe in the brain of virally suppressed individuals, potentially explaining #neurocognitive issues. This finding has key implications for #HIV cure research & CNS-targeted therapies. bit.ly/4eya510 #PLoSPathogens Neuroinfections Lab


We are so excited to see the next iteration of CLOAK take place with ASHM & RMIT University RMIT Research Here's SSSHARC Director Lee Wallace at 'HIV Unwrapped 2024: a re-imagination of the lab coat'. Read more about CLOAK here sydney.edu.au/arts/news-and-… ashm.org.au/about/news/hiv…


On display Doherty Institute 22-24 OCT! A unique collab between Victorian HIV researchers and RMIT University fashion students, to create a series of lab coats which reflect the exceptional work being done in HIV science in Victoria🎫 go.unimelb.edu.au/rxg8
