Participants to the International Liver Congress™ are invited to submit abstracts on any of the categories listed below. All accepted abstracts will be published in the Journal of Hepatology and if selected, either the principal author or someone from his/her group is requested to present the abstract.
Abstracts that have been presented in previous international Gastroenterology/Hepatology meetings will NOT be accepted.
After submission, all abstracts are viewed anonymously by experts and are scored according to their merit. Thereafter, abstracts are selected for oral or poster presentations by the EASL Scientific Committee.
Note: Applications received after the abstract submission deadline 30 November 2009 are not considered.
