A study published in BMC Public Health describes a crowdsourcing open call designed to generate stigma-reduction materials for hepatitis B and C, implemented with medical students in China. The research team collected and evaluated community-informed messaging and educational resources aimed at reducing viral hepatitis-related discrimination. For a public health researcher and laboratory scientist focused on infectious disease platforms and vaccine development, this work demonstrates a scalable, participatory approach to tackling stigma—a critical barrier to screening, vaccination, and treatment uptake in populations at risk.
