HGRAD / HGRV Anyone?
After returning from the first official scientific symposium of the Whittemore-Peterson Institute on XMRV, Dr. Burrascano has proposed that the current name of XAND be changed to HGRAD (Human Gamma Retrovirus Associated Disease) and XMRV to be changed to HGRV (Human Gamma Retro Virus). This is due to be announced at the upcoming NIH retroviral conference this September.
This is the only information about this proposed name changed so we will just have to wait and see if it actually happens.
