About the Liver Health Symposium
A dynamic, one-day, in-person experience uniting patients, caregivers, healthcare providers, and advocates around one shared mission: advancing liver health.
The Liver Health Symposium features a community health fair and free liver health screening, along with two tailored learning tracks — one for the community and one for healthcare professionals. The event delivers practical education, evidence-based insights, and empowering tools to help prevent, detect, and treat liver disease, with CME credits available for providers.
Purpose
Our collective goal is to reduce differences in care, improve early detection, and drive meaningful change to enhance liver health outcomes. By bringing together medical experts, researchers, and patient advocates, we aim to spark important conversations, share the latest in liver disease care, and empower individuals to take action.
Who Should Attend?
Whether you are a community member or patient seeking answers, a caregiver supporting a loved one, a medical professional looking for the latest research, or an advocate striving for change — this symposium is for you.
Be part of something meaningful — support the liver community and help bring this event to life.
