Title: BACH2 the Future - single-cell multiomic and spatial dissection of HIV in tissues and tumor microenvironment

Description: The gut maintains an immuno-tolerant environment to reduce excessive inflammation. We will discuss how BACH2, the effector-to-memory molecular switch, helps HIV to persist in tissues, making gut reservoir distinct from that in the blood. We will discuss how mechanisms of HIV persistence in lymph nodes are in some way similar to how non-Hodgkin lymphoma evade immune infiltration (immune excluded cold tumor).
