title: Controlling the HIV epidemic with antiretrovirals: moving from consensus to implementation.
abstract: The second Controlling the HIV With Antiretrovirals evidence summit was held 22-24 September 2013, in London, England. This preface summarizes the summit's background and key themes, and is an introduction to a series of articles written by select summit faculty and featured in this supplement. In many respects, the supplement can serve as a roadmap for how to move from general consensus around to wider scale implementation of a comprehensive menu of interventions to control the HIV epidemic.
