Hepatology for Dummies
7 April, the first Academy Afternoon in the GALAXY and MicrobLiver consortia was hosted by Odense University Hospital.
In the spring, GALAXY and MicrobLiver will invite partners for three Academy Afternoons. The purpose of the Academy Afternoons is to improve understanding across specialities and thereby create an optimal base for the translational research which is a core activity in the GALAXY and MicrobLiver consortia.
Yesterday, Odense University Hospital hosted the first Academy Afternoon: Hepatology for Dummies. More than 30 partners attended and were given a basic introduction to liver disease, biomarkers, risk factors for development of liver disease and the patient's journey through the healthcare system.
The next Academy Afternoon will focus on genetic and take place on May 5. Host is Copenhagen University.
