“Harvey Alter and the Discovery of Hepatitis C: Making Our Blood Supply Safe,” a new exhibit created by the Office of NIH History and Stetten Museum, is now on view in the central corridor of the Magnuson portion of the Clinical Center, near the FAES coffee shop. A ceremony and reception to mark its official opening had been set for Sept. 7, but will now be rescheduled for a later date, due to unforeseen circumstances.

Speakers include NIH Acting Director Dr. Lawrence Tabak, Clinical Center CEO Dr. James Gilman and Alter.

Watch for announcement of new date.
