While the world has celebrated the arrival of highly effective vaccines against COVID-19, new work by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and the University of Oxford shows that even unrelated vaccines could help reduce the burden of the pandemic.
Weill Cornell Medicine has been awarded a five-year, $28.5 million Martin Delaney Collaboratory grant from the National Institutes of Health to lead a multi-institutional effort aimed at finding a cure for HIV.
Physicians and scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian have rapidly mobilized to confront the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing a broad spectrum of expertise on the critical issues the disease is posing to healthcare workers and public health officials.
When longtime research collaborators Dr. Douglas Nixon and Dr. Brad Jones arrived at Weill Cornell Medicine last summer, they brought with them an ambitious goal: to find a cure for HIV.
As therapies for HIV infection have advanced to help many patients control the infection as a chronic disease, investigators and patients have set their sights on a new goal—finding a cure.
