VIROMARKERS at EASL 2026 Highlights

We are glad to have brought the VIROMARKERS project to the European Association for the Study of the Liver Congress (EASL 2026), held in Barcelona, Spain from 27 to 30 May 2026.

The congress was a valuable opportunity to present our recent research and engage with the scientific community working in liver disease.
It also provided a clear view of how current studies are evolving and how our work fits within the broader direction of the field.
 
We are ready to continue our activities and look ahead to upcoming scientific events!
