TEDxDurham: Dr. Allison Mathews on Community-based Solutions to HIV Cure's Ethical Challenges

'While doctors research treatments and cures for HIV, members of our communities still deal with the stigma and everyday struggles of this deadly illness. How do we work with and care for those impacted by HIV who are still living daily with this illness? Originally from Dallas, Texas, Dr. Allison Mathews  is the founder of the 2BeatHIV project, which is a UNC Chapel Hill-based research project examining how crowdsourcing contests can be an effective community engagement tool that empowers local and global communities to shape the future of HIV cure research. The project hosts a series of crowdsourcing contests that encourage community members to use art, technology, and music to develop creative solutions to the ethical challenges of HIV cure research.' -- TEDx Talks
