NIH-Supported Scientists Develop Tool to Measure Success of HIV Cure Strategies | NIH: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

Wednesday, January 30, 2019 NIAID-Supported Scientists Develop Tool to Measure Success of HIV Cure Strategies Scientists funded by NIAID have developed a new assay to accurately and easily count the cells that comprise the HIV reservoir, the stubborn obstacle to an HIV cure. This advance will enable researchers who are trying to eliminate the HIV reservoir to clearly understand whether their strategies are working. A paper describing the assay’s development was published online today by the journal Nature.
