About the Symposium
The Andy I. Choi Mentoring Program of the UCSF-GIVI Center for AIDS Research offers Bay Area investigators a glimpse into the future of HIV research with a half-day symposium by CFAR mentees. The program will include a group of respected HIV/AIDS investigators from the Mentoring Program and a keynote address from Dr. Eric Goosby, United Nations Special Envoy on Tuberculosis and former United States Global AIDS Coordinator. Drs. Jonathan Fuchs and Monica Gandhi, Co-Directors of the Andy I. Choi Mentoring Program, will serve as moderators.
