Course overview
This course will cover some of the hot topics in HIV research, including weight gain associated with ART, HIV policies and how they can translate evidence-based interventions into practice, the risk of COVID-19 in PLWH and long-acting, injectable ART. The course is part of the “Test My Knowledge: HIV” program, providing bite-sized elearning for healthcare professionals who treat or come into contact with people living with HIV, from hospital doctors or nurses to general physicians and programme managers. The programme was created by three leading international experts in HIV – Professor Dr Jürgen Rockstroh (Germany), Dr Nittaya Phanuphak (Thailand) and Dr Tristan Barber (United Kingdom) – to improve knowledge of HIV in the treatment community, combat stigma and improve patient outcomes. This programme was funded through an unrestricted educational grant from Gilead. The sponsor had no influence on the selection of the scientific committee or topics, or on the creation of any content.
