More than 15,000 policy makers, researchers, and advocates are attending this week’s 22nd International AIDS Conference in Amsterdam. The USAID Global Health Supply Chain Program-Procurement and Supply Management (GHSC-PSM) project is there sharing research and promoting dialogue on important topics.
GHSC-PSM will host a panel discussion on the transition to a new antiretroviral therapy and implications for supply chains at the International AIDS Conference in Amsterdam. “Critical Steps Along the Way: Preparing for the TLD Transition” will feature experts from GHSC-PSM and World Health Organization’s Marco Vitoria, who will discuss new WHO guidance for transitioning patients to tenoflovir/lamivudine/dolutegravir (TLD).
The panel is scheduled for 7 a.m. - 8:30 a.m., July 27, in G102-103 at the RAI Convention Center.
In addition to the panel, GHSC-PSM will present three posters about its work towards achieving 90-90-90. The posters will be added to this page as they are presented, so check back often!
