Abstract
How HIV reservoirs are shaped over time on antiviral therapy is poorly understood. Here, the authors analyze the dynamics of the HIV reservoir by longitudinal proviral sequencing revealing that HIV reservoir expression can contribute to its clearance and paradoxically even to its persistence.
