This week, a new paper described how researchers pieced together the entire molecular structure of the protein shell of the HIV virus using GPU-based simulations. This remarkable achievement not only ...

A new technique using electron tomography and subtomogram averaging at Diamond's electron Bio-Imaging Centre (eBIC), has solved the structure of the HIV capsid alone and in complex with host factors.

Though treatments are available, there is no cure or vaccine from HIV, which impacts about 38 million people worldwide. It's difficult to target the RNA genome of the HIV virus in part because it ...

Scientists at the Electron Bio-Imaging Centre (eBIC) at Diamond Light Source, in the U.K., have harnessed a new technique, using cryo-electron tomography (cryoET) and subtomogram averaging (STA) to ...

A team led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Children's National Hospital has developed a unique pre-clinical model that enables the study of long-term HIV infection, and the testing of new ...

HIV is a human-specific pathogen that does not cause disease in other species, although it can replicate in chimpanzees. HIV cannot infect mice, rats, rabbits, or macaques. Previous HIV mouse models ...

The Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Healthcare Transition (HCT) clinic — a pediatric-to-adult HIV care model — achieved a high 1-year retention rate but a suboptimal viral suppression rate despite ...

"Status Neutral is a holistic paradigm that addresses the HIV needs of the entire population, whether individuals are HIV-negative or HIV-positive… It promotes high-quality, culturally affirming care ...
