INTRODUCTION & SIGNIFICANCE BACKGROUND Support our efforts and establish your reputation in treatment for HIV & Hepatitis coinfection. With this document, we would like to request your financial support and sponsorship the International Workshop on Co-infection - HIV & Hepatitis. Your contribution will make a very much needed conference possible The HIV/Hepatitis Co-infection workshop was initiated 13 years ago to address the rising need among clinicians and researchers for a workshop specifically focusing on these very challenging patients. With the success of antiretroviral therapy, HIV infected patients were seeing improvement in longevity, only to be challenged with the dangers and complications of their additional viral infection. Depending on the country - this was either a majority, or a significant minority of the HIV patients under care. Although HIV/Hepatitis coinfection was a small part of some major HIV conferences, the field lacked a dedicated meeting on this topic. Over the years more and more educational components were added given the growing needs of clinicians to keep up with the rapid developments. The HIV/Hepatitis Co-infection workshop still remains the only focused co-infection meeting in the field. MEETING OBJECTIVES To gather clinicians involved in the treatment HIV and Hepatitis Co-infection in an interactive workshop setting To improve the basic knowledge of antiviral therapy and give basic guidance to healthcare professionals involved in treatment of co-infected patients To provide a platform for presentation and discussion of the latest developments in the field To map current studies and results To translate new data to treatment guidelines To educate clinicians on how to best implement current and new drugs UNIQUE MEETING FEATURES Reach global decision makers and share your vision.

The cross-disciplinary sharing of information between hepatologists and infectious disease experts creates a unique opportunity to further improve the daily management of HIV and Hepatitis co-infected patients.
