About this Research Topic
As we enter into the fourth decade of HIV research and care, we have seen numerous advances in prevention, diagnosis and treatment. With biomedical breakthroughs in pre-exposure prophylaxis options, and testing innovations including HIV self-testing, dried blood spot, and point-of-care tests for STIs, challenges remain surrounding prevention and care cascades, globally meeting promises to achieve the “end of AIDS”, and commitments to STI management and mitigation. Exploring advancements and ongoing shortcomings in basic, clinical, epidemiological, and social sciences, this ‘Reviews in HIV and STIs’ issue invites transdisciplinary researchers to reflect on HIV and STI prevention and care continua, from the lab to the community.
Frontiers in Reproductive Health is delighted to present the ‘Reviews in’ series of article collections.
Reviews in HIV and STIs will publish high-quality scholarly review papers on key topics in the field of HIV and STIs. It aims to highlight recent advances in the field, whilst emphasizing important directions and new possibilities for future inquiries. We anticipate the research presented will promote discussion in the HIV and STIs community that will translate to best practice applications in clinical, public health, and policy settings.
Topics may include, but are by no means limited to:
• Advancements in and uptake of HIV/STI diagnostics, treatments, and vaccines
• Successes, challenges, and critical reflections on HIV/STI prevention and care cascades
• Community responses to advancements in STI/HIV prevention and care
The Reviews in HIV and STIs collection welcomes full-length, mini, or systematic review papers. New articles will be added to this collection as they are published.
