New in 2009: Highlighting New Researchers in HIV Prevention

In a program designed to stimulate the dissemination of new ideas and innovative research among new researchers at the beginning of their careers, the 2009 National HIV Prevention Conference will for the first time highlight the novel work of new researchers in the field of HIV prevention. The Track Co-Chairs selected the first class of new researchers based on innovation, relevance, creativity, or significance of their research. All of these new researchers have conducted their previously unpublished research in the arena of HIV prevention as the lead authors and toward the completion of a degree program-or within five years of graduating from a degree program.
