  abstract = {{W}ho provides informal care ? {W}hat help informal caregivers do provide it and at what costs ? {T}his contribution examines the {B}iomedical {S}cience's {E}mbodiments in {C}ontemporary {L}aos in looking at the materiality of its technologies in the everyday and the ordinary. {W}e aim to tackle this issue in approaching the daily lives of children living with {HIV} from the point of view of the people who are taking care of them, the so-called informal caregivers. {T}he paper highlights the constraints created by caregiving responsibilities, and the emerging issues related to {HIV} disclosure, stigma and discrimination and conflicting feelings. {T}he informal caregivers' narratives underline how families, institutions and local, national and transnational institutions are assigning care work. {I}nformal care offers a lens to explore the social and gender health inequalities, both interrelated with, and too often disregard by the biomedical science.},
