Challenges and opportunities in Hepatitis B elimination

Chronic hepatitis B remains a major cause of global mortality, despite the availability of effective vaccines and antiviral therapies. The burden falls disproportionately on LMICs, where significant barriers persist in achieving equitable access to the interventions needed for elimination.

In this seminar, I will discuss progress towards hepatitis B elimination and the opportunities and challenges that remain. Using examples from clinical epidemiology, modelling and health-economic analyses, I will explore how interdisciplinary approaches can help inform implementation, policy development and future research priorities across diverse settings.
