About This Webinar
On the occasion of World Hepatitis Day 2026, The SciTech Club proudly presents a National Webinar on “Viral Hepatitis: From Molecular Pathogenesis to Global Elimination – Current Challenges and Future Perspectives.” Viral hepatitis continues to be a major global health concern, affecting more than 300 million people worldwide and contributing significantly to liver cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite remarkable advancements in vaccines, diagnostics, and antiviral therapies, hepatitis remains a leading cause of preventable illness and death, emphasizing the need for continued scientific research, public awareness, and global collaboration.
This webinar is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of viral hepatitis by connecting fundamental molecular biology with real-world clinical and public health applications. The session will explore the molecular pathogenesis of hepatitis viruses, including how they infect host cells, evade the immune system, and contribute to chronic liver disease and liver cancer. Participants will also gain insights into the body’s immune response to infection, disease progression, and the latest developments in diagnostic technologies, antiviral therapies, and preventive strategies.
In addition, the webinar will highlight the current global burden of viral hepatitis, the challenges faced in disease control and elimination, and the World Health Organization’s vision for achieving hepatitis elimination by 2030. Through evidence-based discussions and recent scientific advancements, attendees will learn about emerging therapeutic approaches, innovative research directions, and future opportunities in hepatitis prevention and management. Whether you are a student beginning your journey in life sciences or a researcher seeking to expand your knowledge, this session will provide valuable academic insights and practical understanding of one of the world’s most significant infectious diseases.
What You Will Learn
During this webinar, participants will develop a thorough understanding of the biology and clinical significance of viral hepatitis. They will learn about the structure and molecular life cycle of major hepatitis viruses, the mechanisms through which these viruses establish infection and cause liver damage, and the cellular and molecular pathways involved in disease progression. The session will further explain how modern diagnostic techniques, biomarkers, and antiviral therapies have transformed patient care, while also discussing the importance of vaccination, public health interventions, and awareness campaigns in reducing disease transmission.
Participants will also explore the latest scientific research, current challenges in achieving global hepatitis elimination, and future innovations that are shaping the field of molecular medicine. By the end of the webinar, attendees will have a deeper appreciation of how molecular biology, immunology, biotechnology, and public health work together to combat viral hepatitis and improve global healthcare outcomes.
