HIV Vaccine Studies

HIV vaccine development continues around the world. But as we all know, the road to a working, effective HIV vaccine is littered with barriers and road blocks.

The Barriers to Vaccine Development

This feature gives you an update on many of the HIV vaccine research trials being conducted today. Specifically, the following HIV vaccine trials are studies for therapeutic HIV vaccines; those vaccines given to HIV infected people to improve their immune function.
