HepBcommunity.org is a global, peer-led, volunteer-driven online forum to support those affected by hepatitis B. We aim to facilitate peer networking and to link the affected community to trustworthy scientific and medical expertise.

Description of the showcase

At HepBCommunity.org, we want to encourage more conversations between the scientific and affected communities so that we can all learn from each other.

To do this, we are inviting hepatitis B researchers around the world to showcase their research. They will describe why their research is important, how they do it, and what’s exciting about it in a thread on HepBcommunity.org.

You will have the opportunity to ask researchers questions about their research. The best questions will be in the running to win a $100 USD gift card.

Forum members will also be able to cast votes to decide on the most engaging researchers, who will have the chance at winning a $250 USD gift card.

How to enter

It’s free to enter!

Just register on HepBcommunity.org and ask questions in the research threads.

Don’t forget to cast a “like” for the researchers you enjoy the most!
