While it is known that antiretroviral therapy does not cure HIV infection, several controversies in the field of HIV cure research remain unresolved and have the potential to redirect lines of scientific inquiry including strategies aimed at curing HIV infection. In this session, basic and clinical research experts will present evidence for each side of the debates around three controversies drawn from basic, preclinical and clinical research. A moderator for each debate will pose questions to each speaker and field questions from the audience.
