  Genetic Markers and Their Potential in HIV Diagnostic Innovation
  Author(s): Knox Corbin*
  
  The field of HIV diagnosis has evolved significantly since the identification of the virus in the early 1980s. Traditional diagnostic tests, such as antibodybased assays and antigen detection methods, have played a crucial role in identifying individuals living with HIV. However, these approaches have limitations, particularly in detecting the virus during the early stages of infection or in cases where the immune response is weak. As our understanding of the virus and its genetic makeup deepens, genetic markers have emerged as powerful tools in advancing HIV diagnosis. These markers, which are specific genetic sequences within the virus, offer new avenues for earlier detection, better risk assessment, and more personalized treatment strategies. This article explores the potential of genetic markers in revolutionizing HIV diagnostics and the implications for improving patient care. HI.. Read More»
