Brief description Certain anti-HIV drugs called "CCR5 antagonists" block HIV entry into immune cells. However, HIV drug-resistance can occur. Globally, patient access to CCR5 antagonists has been limited because the pre-treatment laboratory test required to determine HIV drug-resistant is expensive and time-consuming. My research will lead to development of computer programs that reliably, rapidly and cheaply determine HIV drug-resistance and thus greatly improve patient access to CCR5 antagonists worldwide.
