Medical Seminar
Every year we arrange to have to have six medical seminars. Relevant professionals are invited to give presentations or lectures on topics matters relating to liver disease, treatments, liver health care and the latest research on the development of hepatitis B medications and much more. Usually at the end of the seminar, there is a period for Q&A session. After the seminar session, members may stay to participate in group discussion to relieve stress and to deepen the friendship with other members by exchanging information and experiences.
