The University of Mel

Join us for an exciting online event where we will be discussing how we can shift the focus from established cirrhosis detection to early fibrosis diagnosis in general practice. This webinar will explore fibrosis-specific non-invasive diagnostic tools and the latest guidelines in liver disease assessment in primary care.

This webinar will be presented by Academic GP Professor Jon Emery and Consultant Hepatologist Professor Leon Adams. Prof Jon Emery is internationally recognised for his work in primary care cancer research, including early cancer detection and diagnostic innovation, while Prof Leon Adams is a leader in liver disease research, particularly the development of liver fibrosis biomarkers and advancing clinical management of patients with chronic liver disease.

Who should attend?
This webinar will focus on liver fibrosis diagnosis in primary care and is targeted towards general practitioners and those working in primary care.
