MIT Team HBV is a new, campus student group part of the larger intercollegiate Team HBV Hepatitis B awareness and prevention network. The group was founded and obtained SAO recognition and funding status in Fall 2011, after previous collaboration with Team HBV at Harvard, who we continue to work with on many events.
Our current exec board consists of:
President: Sasha Targ ’12 (starg [at] mit [dot] edu)
VP Administration: Quynh Nguyen ’15 (qpnguyen [at] mit [dot] edu)
VP Community Outreach: Charles Hsu ’14 (chsuqed [at] mit [dot] edu)
VP Finance: Jiyeon (Judy) Baek ’13 (jjbaek [at] mit [dot] edu)
VP Recruitment/Training: Rebecca Shi ’15 (beckyshi [at] mit [dot] edu)
Please contact us at teamhbv [at] mit [dot] edu with any questions about the group, or if you’re interested in joining!
