The Global HIV Vaccine Enterprise (the Enterprise) convened a two-day workshop on 17-18 September 2009, at the Enterprise offices in New York; to discuss approaches to bridging the gaps between fundamental,preclinical and clinical HIV vaccine research. The topic of this Working Group originated from discussions of the Enterprise Science Committee,which proposed that more effective collaboration between these three areas of HIV vaccine research is needed in order to accelerate the pace of scientific progress in the field. Because the meeting took place before the release of the RV144 trial results held in Thailand, the conclusions reached during the meeting were further discussed during consultations at scientific conferences and at a joint meeting of the Science Committee and Chairs of all five Working Groups. Thus, this Report reflects both the original discussions of the Working Group and subsequent discussions that took place after the release of the RV144 trial results.
