Conference 2016

The 25th Annual Canadian Conference on HIV/AIDS Research - CAHR 2016 - was held May 12 to 15, 2016 at the RBC Convention Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

CAHR would like to thank the nearly 750 individuals that attended CAHR 2016 in Winnipeg.  With a theme of “Realizing Our Potential: Local to Global and Back”, CAHR 2016 had a stellar program of world-renowned speakers. The conference allowed participants to connect with researchers, frontline public health and community-based workers, policy makers, people living with HIV and AIDS and others interested in the field of HIV research.

CAHR would like to thank once again Conference co-chairs Drs Keith Fowke and Marissa Becker, from the University of Manitoba -- and the entire Scientific Planning Committee – for making CAHR 2016 such a success.   A full summary of the event can be found here.
