OAR Website Redesign

Aug 30, 2018

The Office of AIDS Research (OAR) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has revamped its website with a fresh, new look and updated, reorganized content. The new site highlights the trans-NIH HIV/AIDS research priorities and the role OAR plays in developing and coordinating research initiatives across the NIH to address these priorities. The website also includes a list of NIH Institutes and Centers that conduct HIV/AIDS research.

Visitors to the site can find an overview of the history of NIH HIV/AIDS research, updates on recent and upcoming OAR news and events, and links to a variety of resources on HIV/AIDS for researchers, health professionals, and members of the public.
