The Panel meets monthly via teleconferencing to review and critically evaluate emerging scientific data relating to antiretroviral therapy in pregnant women and interventions for perinatal transmission to update of the "Recommendations for the Use of Antiretroviral Drugs During Pregnancy and Interventions to Reduce Perinatal HIV Transmission in the United States," which is found at https://clinicalinfo.hiv.gov/en/guidelines.  Panel members are not compensated for their time commitment.
