Dear Advocates,
Join us on Wednesday, September 24 at 10 AM ET US for a webinar —
Results of the iPrEx open-label extension (iPrEx OLE): PrEP uptake, sexual practices and HIV incidence. This call is a great chance to get updated on the latest data — including information that can help
debunk fears about disinhibition and bolster the case for oral PrEP as a prevention option.
Our presenter, Dr. Robert Grant, is the principal investigator of the
iPrEx and
iPrEx OLE PrEP studies (and involved in several others), and has been a leader in the PrEP research and implementation arena for over a decade. He will present on iPrEx OLE including data on PrEP uptake, sexual risk, adherence and more. He will also be on hand to discuss how the data may help inform PrEP use and programming in the “real world”.
Register here.
Much of the data we’ll be discussing were presented or discussed at
AIDS 2014 in Melbourne. Whether you attended or not, you probably have questions about what happened — and what it all meant. This webinar is part of our
Research & Reality series, designed to delve into these issues.
Check out the full schedule below for links to recordings and slides from earlier webinars and registration links for those upcoming!

UNAIDS, Targets and Civil Society
In Melbourne, UNAIDS launched a new initiative known as “90-90-90”, which lays out new targets for testing, treatment and virologic suppression. Where did these targets come from, what do they mean—and where does prevention fit in? Chris Collins, Chief of the Community Mobilization Division at UNAIDS, will address these questions and more.
