World Liver Day!
April 19 is World Liver Day. Learn why you should love your liver
Making an Impact
The liver is a central metabolic organ that coordinates the healthy functioning of the heart, brain and kidneys.
Liver diseases are the hardest to see and treat. We’re tackling them with new ways to prevent, stop or reverse them. We are reinventing the way we care for our patients and how we educate future physician-scientists. And that helps more people avoid suffering and live longer, healthier lives.
Learn about the vision of VCU’s Stravitz-Sanyal Institute for Liver Disease and Metabolic Health from its founders. The institute is investing in research to stop, prevent and reverse liver disease, a leading factor for the decline in life expectancy in the U.S.
