On behalf of the American Association for the Study of  Liver Diseases (AASLD), I wanted to congratulate the Scientific Program Committee for planning an exciting program for the 4th ASEAN Perspective in Liver Diseases 2016 (APLD 2016).  AASLD is honored to endorse this program, where expert hepatologists from around the globe will present the latest in scientific progress in the management and treatment of liver diseases.

 AASLD and APLD have worked together to develop an exciting program on Sunday, January 21 from 13:30 – 17:30.  Be sure to attend our jointly planned session titled Asian and American Perspectives on the Management of Viral Hepatitis C — where we will discuss who to treat with what, HCV in special populations, and present a case-based study in the practical practice in the management of HCV in Asia.

 Drs. W. Ray Kim and K. Rajender Reddy, on behalf of AASLD, look forward to participating and meeting you at the 4th APLD 2016, Chiang Mai, Thailand.

 

Sincerely,

Gyongyi Szabo, MD, PhD, FAASLD
