Baylor College of Medicine International Pediatric AIDS Initiative (BIPAI)

The Baylor College of Medicine International Pediatric AIDS Initiative (BIPAI) was established in 1996 by Dr. Mark W. Kline, Professor of Pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine, to foster international HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and treatment, health professional education, and clinical research. It has rapidly grown to become the world’s largest university-based program, dedicated to improving the health and lives of HIV-infected children. The mission of the Baylor College of Medicine International Pediatric AIDS Initiative (BIPAI) and its affiliated non-government organizations in Romania, Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland, Malawi, Uganda, Kenya, and Burkina Faso is to conduct a program of high quality, high impact, highly ethical pediatric and family HIV/AIDS care and treatment, health professional training, and clinical research.
