Harvard AIDS publication wins CASE award

The Harvard AIDS Review has been awarded a gold medal by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) for its premier issue, which focused on the AIDS epidemic in India.

Through this special report, the Harvard AIDS Review sought to portray the world's fastest growing HIV epidemic and to advocate for increased efforts to fight AIDS in the developing world. In judging the entry, CASE evaluated the degree to which the publication met its editorial goals. CASE also considered factors such as writing, editing, design, and photography.

The Harvard AIDS Review is published by the Harvard AIDS Institute, a University-wide organization dedicated to conducting and catalyzing AIDS research to end the worldwide AIDS epidemic.
