Written by Christopher Haiduk | Sep 10, 2024 12:23:00 PM

We are happy to announce that our successful series of scientific online seminars continues. On October 08th, 2024 at 4:00PM CEST we will air our next complimentary live online seminar. The session is presented by one of Profil's Lead Scientists Dr. Hans de Vries:

Online Seminar Synopsis

Metabolic associated Fatty Liver Disease affects around 1 in five people living around the world. A small but distinct percentage develops steatohepatitis (MASH). When significant fibrosis then comes into play, risk for mortality and liver events increase. Recently the first drug for MASH received FDA approval. This also renews the interest in non-invasive diagnostic methods, which don’t require a liver biopsy. Finally, new drugs with high efficacy are in late stage of development. All this and more will be discussed during this online seminar. 

 

For whom:

  • Clinical researchers and professionals
  • Pharmaceutical company representatives
  • Policy makers and regulators
  • Academic researchers and institutions
  • Anyone interested in MAFLD and MASH
