Abstract Book: IAS 2015 (8th IAS Conference on HIV Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention, 19 - 22 July 2015)

The Abstract Mentor Programme provides an opportunity for early-career abstract submitters to receive feedback from experienced abstract submitters on their draft abstracts. The programme links participants to mentors within the same track to maximize the use of the mentors’ expertise. Mentoring support was complemented by an online e-course on conference abstract writing.

This year, 80 mentors reviewed 156 draft abstracts for 124 researchers, offering them an opportunity to improve their submissions. 116 mentees finally submitted an abstract for IAS 2015.
