This center is directed by Professor Gregory J. Tsai and Dr. Chi-Chiang Yang and collaborates with the Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center which is directed by Professor David D. Ho in New York for AIDS clinical research. (2)	 Overall objective 1.	To establish a National AIDS Research Center at Chung Shan Medical & Dental College which will coordinate AIDS studies in Taiwan. 2.	By the design of Professor David D. Ho, three specific aims were determined. （A）To study the current AIDS epidemic in Taiwan. / AIDS molecular epidemiology （B）To study the virology and immunology of HIV infection. / National reference Lab. （C）To study the clinical aspects of HIV infection in Taiwan. / Clinical network. 3. The aims including the surveill for prevalence of HIV, incidence of new HIV infection, HIV subtyping, correlates of host genetics, education and preventive campaigns ; the virological research for diagnosis, HIV isolation and biological characterization of HIV strains and the immunological research for humoral and cellular immune response, phenotypic analysis of T cell subpopulations and T cell regeneration ; the clinical aspects for the effect of antiviral therapy, the emergence of drug resistant virus, new drug愛滋病防治中心 一、	成立: 於民國八十八年十二月一日在行政院衛生署疾病管制局支持與補助下正式成立愛滋病防治中心，本中心由蔡嘉哲教授與楊繼江博士共同主持，並與何大一院士於紐約所領導之艾倫戴蒙德愛滋病研究中心合作，進行愛滋病之臨床研究。 二、目標: 1.	建立國家級之愛滋病研究中心。在何大一院士規劃下，計畫於中山醫學院設立國家愛滋病防治中心。 2.	以(A)進行分子流行病學監測、(B)設立中心標準實驗室及(C)建立臨床聯網等為三大實施方向。強調台灣本土性愛滋病現況之監測與預防、臨床免疫學與病毒學研究及建立臨床醫療訊息來源及研究技術資源等。 3. 分子流行病學研究為針對臺灣中部地區之監測與預防系統，負責臺灣地區HIV之盛行率與新增之感染率，臺灣地區HIV之亞型，臺灣地區各族群之遺傳關聯，及教育與防治運動等。可提供本土性基本訊息及臺灣地區HIV之現況，並推動教育宣導；中心標準實驗室包括病毒學與免疫學兩大領域，並採集與保存臺灣地區寶貴之HIV病毒與細胞庫；前兩項目標為基礎建設，可提供臨床實際解決問題之基礎，包括訊息來源及研究技術支援等，以進行台灣本土性愛滋病之臨床研究，包括台灣地區之病毒株生物特性、抗藥性病毒株及有效之天然物與中草藥之研發與疫苗之臨床試驗等。愛滋病人類免疫缺乏病毒病毒學免疫學AIDSHIVVirologyImmunologyProject
