These workshops are held every 3 to 5 years to follow the last five Workshops that were resounding successes being held in San Diego, USA in 1988; San Francisco, USA in 1993; London, United Kingdom in 1996; Skukuza, South Africa in 2000 and Phuket Thailand in 2004. WW6 intends to present recent scientific research in Oral Health and Disease in AIDS covering a wide range of fields including clinical and basic science. This will be accomplished through a combination of invited and contributed talks along with workshops and poster sessions. The workshop sessions have been designed to encourage discussion about current relevant issues and to identify new directions in research. The conference particularly encourages the participation of graduate students, postdoctors, and young faculty, as well as established researchers in Oral Health and Disease in AIDS. Beijing will provide delegates an opportunity to meet each other and to discuss issues of mutual interest. We look forward to the chance of meeting old friends and making new ones!
