9th International Workshop on HIV and Aging will be held in on 13 and 14 September 2018, in New York City, NY, at the New Yorker (Wyndham) hotel. The integration of antiretroviral therapy (ART) into HIV care has dramatically extended the life expectancy of those living with HIV. The longer life expectancy of people with HIV infection is changing the demographics of the HIV epidemic and currently, more than one-half of the people living with HIV are age 45 or older. The ultimate goals of this conference are to stimulate and guide research that will enable better treatment methods and strategies for older adults with HIV, to encourage young investigators, and to stimulate new partnerships between investigators in HIV and aging.
