“This Podcast Will Kill You” — a globally popular medical-science streaming audio show — recently interviewed two leaders of Doylestown’s Hepatitis B Foundation.

Dr. Chari Cohen and Dr. Su Wang contributed to a two-part episode focusing on hep B, which kills 1 million people worldwide, despite being preventable and treatable.

Part one — which details the disease, its causes, and its history — was released Jan. 25. Dr. Wang is the featured expert, sharing expertise gained as medical director the Center for Asian Health and Viral Hepatitis Programs at the Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center (Livingston, N.J.) and outgoing president of the World Hepatitis Alliance (London).

Part two, coming Feb 1., features Dr. Cohen and focuses on hep B discrimination, its stigma, and its quality-of-life impact. The discussion also covers the Hepatitis B Foundation’s mission and programs, and what it’s like to work in public health.

Timothy M. Block, PhD, president, CEO and co-founder of the Hepatitis B Foundation, said. “I’m pleased they chose to interview Dr. Wang and Dr. Cohen… . They are two of the world’s leading experts on hepatitis B and both extremely adept at explaining to the general public the seriousness of the disease and the issues surrounding it.”
