Introduction

Ever since its inception, in August 1978 in Singapore, APASL (Asian Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver) has never looked back and continually adheres to its goal of advancing the science and practice of Hepatology. Today it is one of the leading associations based on the investigation and treatment of liver diseases in the world and the largest scientific body to uphold the standards of profession, research and create improved treatment methods for millions of liver patients particularly in the entire Asia Pacific Region.

APASL's main objectives are to promote the latest scientific advancements and education of hepatology science, exchange of information and the development of consensus, encourage the practice of medicine in liver diseases and also coordinate scientific studies between various scientists and clinicians throughout the region. We hold scientific educational symposia/conferences developed by leading hepatologists periodically. Our events feature expert speakers presenting the finest data on the most important topics of liver diseases with high quality scientific technical presentations, followed by varied supporting programs. Each of our events is intended to meet the growing demands of hepatology as the core medical specialty and offers participants the right platform to exchange research, discuss outcomes, and interact with colleagues, focused on liver diseases. Our members include all medical professionals dedicated to hepatology-its research and practice . We cover the region from Manchuria in the North, to Australia in the South, to the Pacific Islands in the East and Iran in the West. Our members are elected on their documented scientific publications. Mentoring, sharing of knowledge and dedication to professional growth and development are among the core values of APASL and its members.
