 About
Us
The Hepatitis Treatment,
Research and Education Center (HepTREC) is an education, research, and service center at The University of the Sciences in Philadelphia (USP). Initially founded as a community-based not-for-profit
organization in 2002, HepTREC moved into the University in 2009. In our university home, we benefit from the university's infrastructure and the seemingly endless enthusiasm and participation of USP's students, faculty and staff. HepTREC works with many community, government, and other academic institutions to achieve our mission: to reduce the impact of viral hepatitis.
HepTREC’s staff and advisory
board is comprised of professionals recognized as regional,
