HIV Grand Rounds

 

The Division’s weekly HIV Grand Rounds is a continuing medical education (CME)-accredited educational event targeted to HIV providers from UCSF, ZSFG, affiliated San Francisco Health Network clinics, other hospital-based HIV clinics and HIV private practices in the Bay Area.

Weekly lectures and discussions provide the latest information on the pathogenesis and management of HIV disease, complications of HIV, and co-occurring conditions. Topics also include clinical case conferences, reports from important HIV meetings, and updates on HIV research and care. Speakers include UCSF faculty and other physicians, researchers, and HIV-care providers.

The Division is a Center of Excellence for HIV/AIDS care in the Bay Area and is part of a top-tier academic institution. As such, it is uniquely positioned to host this rigorous, state-of-the-art Grand Rounds series focused on HIV issues relevant to current practice.

HIV Grand Rounds is accredited through the UCSF Office of CME (ACCME Provider number 0000302).

UCSF faculty, trainees, and staff can access past lectures using the link below. We cannot award CME credit for remote on-demand attendance.
