As always, at ILS we will present a genuine amalgam of all the core specialties in adult and pediatric Hepatology and Transplantation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>True to the theme &#8211; <strong><em>\u201cLiver Diseases and Transplantation in the 2020s and beyond\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, we will bring together the world\u2019s thought leaders, and their stand and vision on a host of hot topics of clinical and research interest today and in the near future. They include: evolving therapies in MASLD; non-transplant therapy and timely transplantation in ACLF and ALF; frontiers in Transplant Oncology, in particular, standardizing indications of liver transplantation (LT) in locally advanced HCC, colo-rectal liver metastases and intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma; pushing the envelope in prolonged preservation and therapeutic interventions with machine perfusion of deceased donor livers; moving towards minimally invasive liver donor surgery as standard of care; the scope of AI in HB Surgery and LT; nuances in transplanting small babies; transfusion-free LT; aiming for zero mortality among LT recipients, and so many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am particularly looking forward to my fireside interaction on March 8 evening where I will have a free-wheeling chat with two world famous personalities \u2013 a liver surgeon and a hepatologist. We will take a deep dive into their lives and careers to get a sense of how winners make it all happen in the clinic, the lab and their entrepreneurial ventures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the most notable highlights of the 6<sup>th<\/sup> ILS will be the Post-Graduate Certificate Course co-hosted by the Medanta Institute of Liver Transplantation and the LTSI, and conducted by an international group of accomplished liver surgery and hepatology teachers.&nbsp; The course includes deep insights into planning clinical studies, laboratory research and incorporating AI into academic workflows (publications and presentations), followed by break-out workshops for young surgeons on Robotic Liver Surgery, and hepatologists on managing chronic liver disease as a multi-system disorder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The conference is of direct&nbsp;relevance&nbsp;to&nbsp;established and trainee liver physicians, surgeons, anesthetists, pathologists, radiologists and researchers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are delighted to host and welcome you to the Joint 6th International Liver Symposium (ILS) and the Liver Transplantation Society of India (LTSI) Mid-term Conference, 2024, in Gurgaon, Delhi NCR.
