In partnership with HVTN, Dr. Betsy Harold will lead this talk.
Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is one of the most significant factors fueling the global HIV epidemic and coinfection is associated with higher HIV plasma viral loads and increased rates of HIV transmission. Dr. Harold will discuss potential mechanisms including transcriptional responses to HSV and how these responses promote HIV replication.
