The Groundbreaking Series Features Engaging Conversations with People Living with HIV, Advocates and Medical Experts Striving Toward the Shared Goal of Ending HIV

Rockville, Maryland (March 28, 2023): “The Cure Chronicles,” an innovative video series launched by Maryland biotechnology company, American Gene Technologies, is the winner of the third annual BioBuzz Media Award. American Gene Technologies (AGT™) is developing gene therapy technology to combat HIV, and “The Cure Chronicles” takes a deep look into what it means to live with the disease. In the series, AGT’s CEO, Jeff Galvin, interviews HIV advocates and experts – including authors, comedians, doctors, community leaders, and filmmakers – most of whom are living with their own diagnoses. 

“We developed The Cure Chronicles because we wanted people to hear directly from those most impacted by HIV, as well as people who are making a difference in this space,” said Galvin. “Our hope is that this series helps break down the stigma that people often face when living with HIV.”

With nineteen episodes released to date, “The Cure Chronicles” features intimate conversations that touch on the many ways that people navigate their diagnosis – and the extraordinary paths it leads them on. Most have gone on to become advocates and educators about HIV, through comedy, film, social media, books, or by working directly with others who are living with HIV. The series also highlights medical experts that are at the forefront of HIV treatment and research. 

This approach is clearly resonating: the BioBuzz Media Award, which honors a media campaign that has “successfully engaged, informed, and connected people within scientific communities,” is a people’s choice award. According to BioBuzz, “This award honors a media campaign that most aligns with our own mission; ‘to create exceptional experiences that better connect people and employers and foster a stronger regional ecosystem.’”
