Meeting between NIAID employee Diane Hartnell and ACT UP, Women with HIV/AIDS, and AIDS activists in Bethesda, Maryland about AIDS research. Side B includes discussions about first women's natural history study with other NIAID employees.

Side A: Meeting between ACT UP and Women with HIV/AIDS and AIDS activists Seh Welch, Mary Lucy, and Maxine Wolfe and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) employees, including Diane Hartnell, in Bethesda, Maryland. Hartnell, who began at the NIAID as Sten Vermund's assistant, discusses research and resources for health information regarding HIV/AIDS infected women, in addition to other issues involving women's health. Welch, Lucy, and Wolfe raise concerns about the research practices, pregnancy and AIDS, and gynocological infections. Side B: Meeting between Women with HIV/AIDS and AIDS activists Lauren Thomas, Marina Alvarez, Mary Giguere, Maxine Wolfe, and other ACT UP activists and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) employees about the first natural history study of women with HIV/AIDS. Although catalog entry lists Side B as first ACTG meeting with Sten Vermund, discussions do not include Vermund and focus on epidemiological issues for the first natural history study of women with HIV.
