🌍🧩 Plastic pollution & liver disease : what’s the link?💥
This year at
#EASLCongress, we’re shining a spotlight on Environmental Hepatology with a must-attend Meet-the-Expert session:
“Plastic Pollution and Liver Disease: Unravelling the Evidence.”, on 8 May, 8:30 - 9:30 CEST
events-apps.easl.eu/easl2025…
💬 Here are the big questions we’ll be tackling:
1️⃣ How do micro- and nanoplastics enter and move through the human body, and what do we still not know?
2️⃣ Is there solid evidence tying plastics to specific diseases, and what limits current research?
3️⃣ Are experimental models capturing the real-world exposure picture?
4️⃣ What tech and science breakthroughs are needed to move the field forward?
5️⃣ Could plastics be silently contributing to liver disease, and how do we find out?
🎤 Featuring the scientist who coined the term microplastics, the researcher linking plastics to heart disease, and leading experts in hepatology — discover how micro and nanoplastics might be fueling liver disease and what can be done about it.
