The goals of the University of Colorado CFAR are to provide scientific leadership and stimulate scientific collaboration among AIDS investigators by providing institutional infrastructure and promoting scientific communication across disciplines. In addition the CFAR will promote opportunities for training and education in AIDS research, as well as the dissemination of knowledge to the scientific community and to the community at large. Specific cores proposed for this CFAR include Development, Clinical, Virology, Immunology, and SCID-hu cores.
