AIDS TREATMENT NEWS - November 23, 2004

Summary: Those planning to attend the Retroviruses conference in Boston in February must pay attention to its many deadlines.
The 12th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections, February 22-25, 2005, in Boston, has nine different deadlines, three of them on November 23: Community Educator Program Applications, Community Press Applications, and International Scholarship Applications. Note that some people will need to obtain a scholarship even if they do not need the money, as otherwise they will not be allowed into the conference, which is not open to everyone.
"Community Press" means AIDS newsletters, etc. ("Consumer Press" -- New York Times, Washington Post, etc. -- has a much later application deadline, but its reporters also must register in advance in order to attend.)
For more information visit http://www.retroconference.org/. For the deadlines, click 'Dates to Remember'. And for instructions on registering as press, click 'Media Participation'. For instructions for community educators or international scholarship applicants, click 'Travel Grants and Scholarships'.
