Present were Chris Grady, Ellen, Gerry, Richard and Donna Benveniste, Bill and Melody Wilson, Larry and Carla Silverstein, Neera Tanden and husband Dan. Neera is on the Obama transition team and I am sure that Ellen in her quest to get me to become NIH Director set this up for us to meet. I am very reluctant to take the job and soon I will likely have to tell the Obama people "no" if they ask. Prior to the Sigal dinner party I gave remarks at the opening reception for the TAG Workshop on Eliminating Viral Persistence and Eradicating HIV infection. This is becoming a very hot issue that I have been pushing in the sense of a "functional" cure.
