The aim of this programme is to offer training courses in basic research relevant to hepatology, the ultimate goal being to improve the quality of basic research by disseminating knowledge in units run by investigators who are members of EASL.

The Basic School consists of:

• one-to-two day courses hosted in a centralized venue.

• interactive lectures on scientific methods and technologies related to a particular topic. (Attendees can ask to discuss specific problems).
• limited attendance from 30-40 individuals who should be currently involved in research in a field relevant to the course.

The course is especially targeted at MD/PhD students and post-doctoral fellows with a particular interest in hepatology. EASL organizes 1 Basic School of Hepatology at the begining of every year, usually in January or February.
