Cholestatic and non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD) differ in their origins but share multiple features in terms of disease progression (i.e inflammation, fibrosis and cirrhosis), pharmacological targets. The agenda has been designed to bring together liver scientists (translational researchers and clinical investigators) with strong expertise in cholestatic and/or fatty liver diseases. The goals of this symposium are to: i) allow both communities to learn about each other’s progresses, ii) review the most recent preclinical and clinical investigations in their respective field and, iii) promote the rapid emergence of novel and efficient therapeutic options.

Upon completion of this activity, learners will be able to:

• Increases understanding of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to be more efficient in identifying current or future management strategies for patients. 
• Enhanced knowledge and understanding of NAFLD to be informed of the most recent basic discoveries in the field. 
• Learners will improve their knowledge and understanding of NAFLD.
