Dear Friends,
The month of December is a special month for the HIV/AIDS community around the world and for AIDS Research Alliance. Every December 1 World AIDS Day is commemorated around the globe. This year AIDS Research Alliance hosted our inaugural World AIDS Day Concert at The Colburn School. Keynote speaker Dr. David Hardy, Director of the Division of Infectious Diseases at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, gave the keynote address. Of special significance to AIDS Research Alliance were Dr. Hardy's favorable remarks about prostratin and our cure strategy.
Since the last report, we continued to mobilize interest and support for prostratin and will begin conversations with Kaiser Permanente in 2013 about a potential partnership focused on HIV/AIDS reservior eradication research. We remain optimistic that prostratin will activate the hidden virus from actual infected patients.
I wanted to share with you an encouraging article published on prostratin research this month. Articles like this is a reaffirmation that we are pursuing a valid strategy in the eradication of HIV. Please see the article link below.
I also would like to use this opportunity to let you know our project is now published in the GlobalGiving UK page. If you happen to have friends and/or relatives living in the UK they can contribute to our project too by visiting our UK page at http://www.globalgiving.co.uk/projects/help-cure-aids. Donations from the UK will help us achieve our financial goal to complete this project in 2013.
Words cannot express how important your support is to our ability to conduct HIV/AIDS research. Thank you for a good year.
With warm wishes for this holiday season,
Steve
