The meeting will provide a state of the art review of recent advances on biliary fibrosis and cholangiopathies, with particular emphasis on pathophysiology, unmet clinical question, pathophysiology, and treatment opportunities. In addition, the STC will define and reconcile current areas of controversy, delineate future avenues of research and highlight translational opportunities (novel therapies).

Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) and Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) including their variants, encompass a wide spectrum of liver diseases with diverse pathophysiology, clinical presentation (or characteristics), management and prognosis. Aims of this course are to (1) recognize red flags for the diagnosis of AIH and PBC, (2) apply diagnostic techniques according to clinical indications, (3) correctly interpret available clinical, laboratory and histological data, (4) provide an overview of the new therapeutic armamentarium, and (5) provide guidance on diagnosis and treatment options in difficult to manage patients. The course directors and the faculty members are well known physicians in the field and have the experience to achieve the abovementioned aims.

This EASL school is dedicated to chronic alcohol related liver disease, covering all aspects of the patient’s journey through the healthcare system. From alcohol’s impact on citizens in the society, to early disease detection, biomarkers used in healthcare pathways from primary to secondary care, global and specialised interventions, and new innovations to improve patient management. With the school, we aim to combat the stigma and taboo associated with the harmful effects of alcohol, and replace it with fully updated and high-quality evidence highlighting the many opportunities for improving our patient’s life and health.

A dedicated clinical school on the use of concepts and skills of evidence-based care to solve controversial real-life problems in the management of cirrhosis. The course will focus on those areas of cirrhosis management where agreement is far from being settled, including use of beta-blockers and anticoagulation, TIPS to prevent recurrence and re-compensation. The course will follow a model of small group workshops to guide students through critically appraisal techniques of the evidence and its translation into practice as recommendation. The study will rely on local expertise from hepatologists and methodology researchers from the liver units of tertiary hospitals from Madrid, Spain. During the 2-day course students will have the opportunity to learn about the background of clinical controversies in this area of clinical practice. Attendees will then undertake case-based group sessions, facilitated by the faculty to understand how published research can be used in practice to develop graded recommendation/statements of the addressed clinical problems. These sessions will then form the basis of a final plenary session presented by the delegates for shared discussion with the faculty.

This school will focus on the contribution of gut-liver axis to a range of chronic liver diseases, the growing pertinence of antimicrobial resistance to cirrhosis, and manipulation of the gut microbiome as a novel approach to treatment (using faecal microbiota transplant amongst other techniques). This school aims to give an update over a number of key themes across the spectrum of the microbiome and liver disease, relevant to clinicians and scientists alike.
