Excellent work @ChrisMysko and team. Addressing inequalities will benefit all patients.
Read our #review on #healthinequalities in #HCC published with @SpringerNature in BJCReports
The first of many papers from the @REVISE_HCC study!

Great discussion and took lots away from an excellent day #NHSCancerInnovation. Great to represent @MFT_Research and @FBMH_UoM and @REVISE_HCC . Also enjoyed being called an innovator!
It was fantastic to attend @NHSEngland 'Innovation in the Early Diagnosis of Cancer' event and learn about the important innovations happening across the country. Project lead @VSAthwal joined an expert panel to discuss how to improve pathways

Time for round 3 of #FGCup! Two great papers going head to head in the world of IBD! "Investigation of abnormal LFTs in patients with IBD" vs "management of chronic pain in IBD: a practical guide"

🏆 Congratulations to researchers at @MFTnhs, @OfficialUoM, working in collaboration with @RocheDiaUK, who have been shortlisted for a HSJ Partnership Award 2025.
The team have implemented new technology across MFT which is improving the early detection of a common liver cancer.

We have a fully funded PhD opportunity investigating how biological clocks regulate cardiac surgical outcomes for #biology, #Maths, #Chemistry. Following our recent publications in JCI and Lancet Resp Medicine. Full details: findaphd.com/phds/project/bi… @h_durrington @FBMH_UoM
Well said! Addressing these health inequalities should be a priority for any and every government.

The huge rise in deaths from liver disease exemplifies the decline of our nation's health under the Conservatives, with worsening outcomes and widening inequalities.
Stockport's liver disease mortality rate is 16.5% higher than the average.
I secured a debate on this crisis 👇🏾
Congratulations to all involved. Really important to have these guidelines for a group that can be ‘lost in the gap’ between adult and children’s services. Will read and re-read.
Big big news! This is so impt! Thank u to all who contributed. Such an impt article IMHO. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @MichaelHenegha8 @BSGTrainees @basl_events @tweetcldf @jfergus75 @BritSocGastro
Well done @ChrisMysko
Really important to understand where we are before deciding where we need to go!
Congrats to the team led by @ChrisMysko who will be taking @uk_torch forward with the project ‘Real-world hepatocellular carcinoma surveillance across the UK: a multi-centre retrospective cohort study’ - watch this space! @BSGTrainees @ScotSocGastro @WAGE_media @ulstergastro

@VSAthwal presented at #BASL2023 today on how ID LIVER is improving early detection of #LiverDisease

🔬 Exciting Findings at #EASLCongress 2023!
Karen Piper Hanley presents groundbreaking research on liver fibrosis at the General Session II. Her study, titled "An Integrative Multi-omic Approach Defines Therapeutic Pathways in Liver Fibrosis," revealed promising insights into altered cell state and chromatin organisation. This innovative approach holds great potential for developing new therapeutic strategies.
Building on collaborations from @ID_LIVER to improve outcomes for people with liver disease. @sbrihealthcare
Researchers at @MFTnhs and @OfficialUoM have been awarded over £1 million by @NHSEngland to explore the use of an innovative test for the most common liver cancer, HCC.
Find out more about this potentially life-saving research, supported by @RocheDiaUK 👇
