Joep Lange & Jacqueline van Tongeren Junior Investigator’s Award

This year the scientific programme committee will once again select the best abstract submitted by a junior scientist to be awarded the Joep Lange & Jacqueline van Tongeren Junior Investigator’s Award.

To be considered for the award, authors must be in the process of gaining or have recently gained their PhD. In addition, the abstract must relate to work carried out in gaining their PhD.

The winning abstract author will be given the opportunity to present their abstract as an oral presentation during one of the conference sessions. They will also receive a prize to the value of €1000 to be spent within one year of NCHIV 2019 on research-related costs, such as textbooks or attending a conference.

The winning author will be announced during the final conference session.

NCHIV provides an update and platform for discussion of new insights and developments in research on the pathogenesis, epidemiology, prevention and treatment of HIV. The one-day programme has three key elements: a core programme of sessions focussed on each of these four research themes; an extended lunch programme with poster presentations; and four invited plenary speakers.
