If You Are HIV Negative
Participating in a clinical trial gives you an opportunity to help determine the best ways to keep HIV negative people safe from getting AIDS. Emory is currently studying experimental AIDS vaccines, microbicides (to prevent women from getting HIV from men during sex), and behavioral interventions that help people develop the attitudes and skills needed to remain uninfected.
