Introduction

Dear colleagues,

The Global Forum on MSM & HIV (MSMGF) has made plans to feature the high-quality MSM and transgender abstracts that will not be presented at AIDS 2012 in a new publication to be released before the conference.

You are invited to submit your abstract for inclusion in this publication if:

• You submitted your abstract to AIDS 2012 and it was not accepted for presentation;

• Your abstract was accepted for presentation at AIDS 2012, but you were not granted a scholarship and will not be able to attend.

Remember to submit only original and unedited versions of abstracts that were previously uploaded to www.aids2012.org.

Abstracts will be scored by an independent editorial board according to their adherence to the Official AIDS 2012 Abstract Submission Guidelines, as well as the clarity and relevance of the content. Decisions will be made by May 18, 2012.

Thank you very much for submitting your abstract!

Sincerely,

The MSMGF team
