To address long-standing questions in HIV research, the Third Coast Center for AIDS Research (CFAR) is seeking to build closer ties and collaborations between scientists associated with the CFAR and other NIH-funded centers. The HIV Accessory and Regulatory Complexes (HARC) Center is one of six specialized centers funded by the NIH AIDS-Related Structural Biology Program for the discovery, description, and structural determination of HIV-host complexes. The HARC Center specifically focuses on HIV accessory and regulatory proteins that regulate viral replication and the host response, including Tat, Rev, Vif, Vpr, Vpu, and Nef. In this seminar, attendees will hear about new research breakthroughs from two HARC Center PIs: John Gross, PhD, UCSF, on HIV-1 Vif and Judd Hultquist, PhD, Northwestern, on HIV-1 Tat. Third Coast CFAR members interested in pursuing new research with investigators from the HARC Center or other Structural Biology Program grantees are encouraged to leverage local funding opportunities available through the Developmental Core.
