Challenges in Understanding and Preventing HIV Transmission
Dr. Julie Overbaugh, a member of the Human Biology Division of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, shares HIV prevention approaches, explains why a cure is so challenging and explores potential immunization against HIV. Overbaugh discusses her ongoing research in Kenya to analyze HIV variants early in infection, especially in women and infants. These early HIV strains represent critical targets for vaccine design, and provide important insights into how HIV is transmitted.
