Notice of Public Meeting of the President's Emergency Plan for 
AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) Scientific Advisory Board

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), 
the PEPFAR Scientific Advisory Board (hereinafter referred to as ``the 
Board'') will meet on September 14-15, 2011 at the House of Sweden 
Event Center, 2900 K Street, NW., Washington, DC 20007. The meeting

    The meeting will be hosted by the Office of the U.S. Global AIDS 
Coordinator, Ambassador Eric Goosby, who leads implementation of the 
President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).
    The Board serves the Global AIDS Coordinator in a solely advisory 
capacity concerning scientific, implementation, and policy issues 
related to the global response to HIV/AIDS. These issues will be of 
concern as they influence the priorities and direction of PEPFAR

strategies and implementation, and the role of PEPFAR in the 
international discourse regarding appropriate and resourced responses. 
Topics for the September 14-15th meeting will include an update on 
PEPFAR-funded evaluations, discussions on the policy relevance of the 
recent results regarding treatment for prevention, and recommendations 
to the Ambassador on the future direction of evaluation and research 
within PEPFAR.
    The public may attend this meeting as seating capacity allows. 
Admittance to the meeting will be by means of a pre-arranged clearance 
list. In order to be placed on the list, please register at https://www.team-psa.com/pepfar/2011. While the meeting is open to public
