Endorsed Event: Royal Free Sheila Sherlock Postgraduate Hepatology Course
We are delighted to endorse The Royal Free Sheila Sherlock Hepatology Postgraduate course, taking place online on 16th – 18th March 2022.
The course has developed an excellent reputation for its clinically relevant, interactive, and curriculum-focussed content, designed for both gastroenterology and acute medicine trainees, and consultants seeking an update that is tailored to everyday practice. The aim is to equip clinicians with the knowledge and skills to expertly manage patients with liver disease. The programme has been re-vamped for 2022, with sessions covering hepatology in the clinic, acute medical take, ITU, and liver transplant settings. This is the 8th year that the course has been run, with consistently excellent delegate feedback. This year, the course will be held virtually, with live-streamed speakers and plenty of opportunities for audience interaction and questions.
