Call for Papers for 7th AIDS and Economics Pre-Conference

IAEN is now welcoming the submission of abstracts through February 15, 2012 for the upcoming 7th AIDS and Economics Pre-Conference. The call is open to individuals who are conducting research on the issue of HIV/AIDS and economics. Typical topics in past Pre-Conferences have included HIV costing, cost-effectiveness analysis, resource allocation and expenditure tracking, AIDS and the workplace, AIDS and the private sector, economic and behavior change, and socio-economic impact assessments. Groups who would like to propose a panel on one particular topic may do so by proposing presenters and abstracts as a group. The panel should not comprise more than four abstracts. Reviewers reserve the option of selecting a panel to present, selecting individual abstracts within a panel or rejecting all abstracts within a proposed panel.

Winning papers will be presented during a 2-day symposium on July 20 and 21, 2012, immediately prior to the XIX International AIDS Conference (July 22-27, 2012 in Washington, DC). Organizers will provide scholarships for some presenters from developing countries to attend the IAEN Pre-Conference, and will accept other abstracts for presentation but without scholarship.
