KIMS Hospitals is conducting HEAL-2016, an international symposium on Hepatology Advances and Liver Transplantation on February 6th and 7th. The conference is being held in association with INASL - Indian National Association for the Study of the Liver. The dawn of the millennium has seen major advances in the field of hepatology and liver transplantation, from discovery of newer antiviral therapy for hepatitis C & B, stem cell therapies, to advances in liver transplantation including donor graft optimization techniques and immuno suppressive therapies. KIMS Hospitals is bringing together renowned experts from India and across the world including UK, USA & Singapore, to discuss and debate these clinical advances, controversies and current best practices.
Dr. B Bhaskar Rao, MD & CEO of KIMS Hospitals, said “Liver disease and liver cancer have been on the rise in India but the current advances means that these conditions could be diagnosed early and eminently treated. The Department of Hepatology and Liver Transplantation at KIMS Hospitals has done a wonderful job of bringing together top minds from across the world for this two day workshop. I expect the participants to benefit immensely from the collective wisdom and insights that will be shared for the next two days. We have been at the forefront in providing complex, cutting edge liver care including transplantation services in a cost effective manner. This international liver transplantation conference, which is the one of the first of its kind in Hyderabad, aims to discuss these advances and share global and local perspectives on making state of the art liver care available to everyone.”
