San Francisco: 9th National AIDS Update Conference, March 18-22

The annual National AIDS Update Conference in San Francisco is primarily intended for "physicians, nurses, dentists, hospital and public health administrators, social workers, and mental health practitioners, ... policy makers involved in community-based organizations and other allied practitioners concerned with the prevention and management of HIV/AIDS infection." It is sponsored by at least 35 organizations, including the American Foundation for AIDS Research, the American Medical Association, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the San Francisco Department of Public Health, and several programs of the University of California. This is a professional education conference, but not a forum for release of new research information.

Continuing education credit is available for physicians, nurses, and health educators, and for social workers for some purposes.

The conference will take place March 18-22 at the Civic Auditorium in San Francisco. For more information, call Krebs Convention Management Services, 415/255-1297.
