The Clearninghouse on Male Circumcision for HIV Prevention is moving to the new Global HIV Prevention Coalition’s Resource Hub. All of our resources have been transferred to the GPC site, where additional VMMC resources will continue to be posted as part of the Adolescent Boys and Men pillar. This site will no longer be available beginning May 1, 2024.
Researchers conducted a case-control study among uncircumcised men in Uganda to determine whether particular penile microbiomes are associated with increased risk of HIV infection. Their results, published in the journal mBio, suggest that modifying the penile biome could reduce HIV acquisition in both men and women.
