The Division of AIDS conducts diagnosis to basic research on the mechanisms of HIV infection. AIDS research is currently focused on studying the molecular biological properties, replication mechanism and characteristics of the host immune response to HIV. We also study on the development of vaccine and antiviral agents.
As the national HIV reference laboratory, we provide quality assurance programs of HIV test for screening laboratories and in-service training for public health workers. In addition, we conduct studies on AIDS-related opportunistic virus infection and sexually transmitted viruses including human papillomavirus(HPV) and human herpesvirus type2(HSV-2).
