amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research
amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research, is one of the world’s leading nonprofit organizations dedicated to the support of AIDS research, HIV prevention, treatment education, and advocacy. Since 1985, amfAR has invested nearly $550 million in its programs and has awarded more than 3,300 grants to research teams worldwide.
Today amfAR’s research focus is on the development of a cure for HIV. It is pursuing this goal through multi-year grants supporting both basic science and clinical studies, and a range of special initiatives. This includes the amfAR Research Consortium on HIV Eradication (ARCHE), a grant-making initiative that supports collaborative teams of scientists in the U.S. and around the world working on a range of HIV cure strategies.
In 2016, we established the amfAR Institute for HIV Cure Research with a five-year $20 million grant to the University of California, San Francisco. And IciStem is a consortium of European researchers created and funded by amfAR that is following a cohort of patients with cancer and HIV who have received, or soon will receive, a stem cell transplant. The cohort includes “the London patient” and “the Düsseldorf patient.”
