Recent Translational Research in HIV/AIDS
Edited by Yi-Wei Tang, ISBN 978-953-307-719-2, Hard cover, 564 pages, Publisher: InTech, Published: November 02, 2011 under CC BY 3.0 license, in subject Infectious Diseases
DOI: 10.5772/1753
The collective efforts of HIV/AIDS research scientists from over 16 countries in the world are included in the book. This 27-chapter Open Access book well covers HIV/AIDS translational researches on pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and also those beyond conventional fields. These are by no means inclusive, but they do offer a good foundation for the development of clinical patient care. The translational model forms the basis for progressing HIV/AIDS clinical research. When linked to the care of the patients, translational researches should result in a direct benefit for HIV/AIDS patients.
