Centro Studi Fegato
Scientific activity at the Italian Liver Foundation focuses on projects dealing with hepatocarcinoma (HCC), Non Alcoholic Fatty liver disease (NAFLD), Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (ALD) and the role of bilirubin in the physiology and the pathology. Over the past 5 years, over 100 scientific papers in high impact, international scientific journals have been published.
The research activities of the Italian Liver Foundation are also supported by grants awarded from various international funding agencies.
