What an event! We loved seeing you in our International Guest Lecture! I hope you enjoyed it and that you were able to get to the drinks reception afterwards 🥂🎊
It was an honour to host Dr Gerald Friedland, Professor Emeritus at Yale University, for a special guest lecture in collaboration with UCL-TB. Dr Friedland's talk, "Confronting HIV and TB from the Bronx NY to Tugela Ferry, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa... and Beyond", was a fascinating snapshot into his experiences with HIV/AIDS and Tuberculosis from the early 1980s to the present day.
The talk was live streamed and recorded, enjoy! https://mediacentral.ucl.ac.uk/Play/9762
Dr Friedland began working with HIV/AIDS patients in the US in 1981 and, more recently, his pioneering research has included integrating HIV and TB care and treatment in co-infected patients in South Africa with the aim of improving diagnosis, treatment and outcome of both diseases. He received the N'Galy Mann Award in 2016 and the Maxwell Finland Lectureship in 2010.
