Overview
Welcome

We are pleased to look back on a very successful 4th International Workshop on Microbiome in HIV Pathogenesis, Prevention and Treatment, held on the 16th and 17th October 2018 in Rockville, Maryland, USA.

The Organizing Committee and organizers would like to thank the speakers, chairs and all participants for their contribution to this meeting! Special thanks to the workshop support: National Institutes of Health, and sponsors: ViiV HealthcareGilead SciencesMerck, and Seres Therapeutics. Without their contribution this workshop would not have been made possible.

We look forward to seeing you again next year at the 5th International Workshop on Microbiome in HIV Pathogenesis, Prevention and Treatment, tentatively scheduled in October 2019, in Rockville, Maryland, USA.

The Organizing Committee

General Information 

Unique Features
The meeting features for the workshop are to its multidisciplinary nature and significance in enabling to learn how the host microbiome can influence responses to our current HIV therapies, and to further our ability to develop novel prevention and therapeutic strategies for HIV that will lead to the reduction of new HIV infections and the burden of non-communicable diseases in HIV infected subjects.
Meeting Objectives
This meeting aims to:

- To gather cross-disciplinary professionals in the field of microbiome research to provide a better understanding of the impact of microbiome changes on HIV outcomes

- To develop a better understanding of how the microbiome effects the pathogenesis of HIV across mucosal sites

- To enhance our knowledge of how the microbiome can impact vaccine responses

- To better understand how the microbiome can contribute to the development of non-communicable diseases

- To use our knowledge of the microbiome field in developing novel strategies for developing microbicides for HIV prevention

- To bring together scientists from across the globe to enhance our understanding of how we can use approaches to modulate the microbiome to reduce levels of inflammation

- To bring together bioinformatics experts in enhancing our ability to analyze complex data generated by sequencing the host microbiome
