Working on HIV vaccine trials is very much about working for a cause and there is a real sense of that among the team here. Every morning, HIV Google alerts ping into our recruiter and marketers inbox, where stories and articles are read and then shared on our social media channels. We don’t stick to only sharing stories about vaccines and research, we try and stay on top of all of the surrounding news and updates. We also take a keen interest in other infectious diseases stories, which is reflected on our Twitter feed.
So here is a selection of links to what we have been reading this week:
Meet the man leading Britain’s fight against Ebola (The Guardian)
What it’s like to be a woman with HIV (US news)
Empowering women is critical to ending the AIDS epidemic (UNAIDS)
