The goal of the Liver Center is to integrate bench science with clinical investigation, in support of its vision to understand and cure human liver diseases.
Heading to #TLM26 in Denver? UCSF authors are on 78 abstracts: 16 orals, 62 posters and 30 invited and moderator roles across Nov 5–8. Come find the @UCSFLiverCenter team! #AASLD#LiverTwitter
ALT Exciting times for liver research and the UCSF Liver Center with groundbreaking papers just published by junior center members Vijay Ramani and Jillian Jespersen.
Just published! 🎉Machine perfusion of non-transplantable human livers permits optimization and de-risking of liver gene therapy with AAV vectors. Funded by @NIDDKgov with contributions from all @UCSFLiverCenter cores. See publication in @NatureBiotechnature.com/articles/s41587-0…
Just published! 🎉New article using machine perfusion of non-transplantable human livers to optimize and de-risk liver gene therapy with AAV vectors. Facilitated by contributions from all @UCSFLiverCenter cores. See publication in @NatureBiotechnature.com/articles/s41587-0…
‼️Tomorrow, Jan. 15th, at 7am - Transplant Surgeon Dr. Garrett Roll & Director of our @UCSFLiverCenter Dr. Holger Willenbring, will deliver their talk on "Machine Perfusion of the Liver: Clinical Impact and Discovery Potential" at Grand Rounds.. Join Us 👉ow.ly/y53R50JrV2R
‼️Kicking off the week by revealing that @UCSF Pediatric Surgeon Dr. @AmarNijagal has been rewarded a $50,000 Pilot/Feasibility Grant from
@UCSFLiverCenter for his study titled "Deciphering the Role of Macrophage Mediated Signals on Immune Tolerance in the Developing Liver."👏👏

‼️Monday, Nov 13th, in Boston, @UCSFTransplant & @UCSFLiverCenter researcher, Dr. Holger Willenbring, takes the stage at AASLD Liver Meeting @AASLDtweets to give the Hans Popper State-of-the-Art Lecture, sharing his vision on the "Next Generation Human Liver Gene Therapy"👇
Congratulations to Marko Groeger et al from the Willenbring lab, who report in a human iPSC model that inflammatory signaling from activated iPSC-macrophages induces insulin resistance in iPSC-hepatocytes. @UCSFSurgery@ucsfstemcell@UCSFMedpubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3740…
UCSF Liver Center members and trainees: @AASLD has moved up the abstract deadline for the Liver Meeting to Wed, May 24! Don't forget to submit your best work! #TLM23, November 10-14, Boston.
Congratulations to everyone who presented at AASLD’s Liver Conference this year! Our fellows and The Liver Center had a total of 33 posters presentations, 12 oral presentations, and 6 meet-the-expert sessions!
Congratulations to Monika Sarkar and colleagues from the @UCSFLiverCenter on their publication documenting an increased risk of NASH in women of reproductive age who have polycystic ovary syndrome.
