Author Description

AIDS is undeniably one of the most pressing medical emergencies of our era but it is now 12 years since the discovery of HIV and, in spite of a world-wide research effort, we are still a long way from understanding and controlling AIDS. HIV 1: A Practical Approach describes studies of the virus and infected cells. Together with its companion volume, HIV 2, which explores the biochemistry of HIV, it provides clear, practical instructions about how to study HIV in the laboratory.
