HIV From Biology to Prevention and Treatment : a Subject Collection from Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine

The basic biology of the HIV virus provides a model for a more general understanding of retroviruses, and the worldwide epidemic of AIDS makes research into the disease process and potential therapies among the most critical in biomedical science. This book explores work on the molecular biology of HIV, host-virus interactions, host immune responses, HIV transmission, as well as approaches to vaccine design, other prevention strategies, and current and potential therapies.
