Hepatology research group

The focus for the hepatology reasearch group is clinical epidemiology, clinical trials and diagnostic modalities in chronic liver disease, including cirrhosis and its complications. We aim to include the main patient groups within general hepatology (including viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and autoimmune liver diseases) and conduct clinically relevant research through observational studies and randomized controlled trials. We collaborate with national and international research networks, including Centre for Elimination of Hepatitis C (SELIHEP), Chronic Liver Failure Consortium (CLIF), Inflammatory bowel disease research group (IBSEN), the National Institute of Public Health (NIPH), and The Bergen Research Group for UltraSound in GastroEnterology (BRUSE).
