The online webinar is taking place on Tuesday May 28th between 10am and 12:15pm CEST.

Speakers:
Giovanni Guaraldi - M.D and Associate professor in Infectious Disease at University of Modena and Reggio Emilia
Lars Holger Ehlers - Professor and Director at Nordic Institute of Health Economics
Moderator: Emanuel Karlström, Strategist, HIV-Sweden
Language: English
Description:
Several trends can be discerned in the 40-year history of HIV, from palliative care to the current designation of HIV as a chronic, treatable disease. With an aging target group and the changing care needs of people living with HIV, we are in the midst of an ongoing paradigm shift with demands to adapt care and resource allocation.
Join us in this interdisciplinary session, where we tackle questions like: What is the cost of comorbidity and aging in people living with HIV? How can we better prevent, detect and treat comorbidities in a time of resource constraints?
Presentations and discussions will include both research and clinical observations with examples from Europe and the Nordics.
The event is organized by HIV-Sweden and supported by Gilead.

Description:
Several trends can be discerned in the 40-year history of HIV, from palliative care to the current designation of HIV as a chronic, treatable disease. With an ageing population and changing care needs of people living with HIV, we are in the midst of an ongoing paradigm shift with demands to adapt care and resource allocation.
Join this multidisciplinary session, where we will address questions such as; What is the cost of co-morbidity and aging in people living with HIV? How can we better prevent, detect and treat co-morbidity in an era of limited resources?
Presentations and discussions will include both research and clinical observations with examples from Europe and the Nordic countries.
The event is organized by HIV-Sweden with the support of Gilead.
