Marko Korenjak, ELPA President, has been nominated as patients’ representative in the EASL Policy and Public Health Committee.

The mission of the Committee is to provide EASL with expert scientific and policy guidance to enable it to carry out its public affairs activities and achieve its public affairs goals and objectives. 

The Policy and Public Health Committee members are responsible for coordinating the development of: 

• EASL Policy and Public Health Strategy and Work Plan
• new EASL Policy Statements, Position Statements, and EASL Public Health Policy Research 
• EASL Public Health sessions at EASL Public Health events
• EASL cooperation with patient associations working in the field of liver conditions

Policy and Public Health Committee members are expected to be able to attend monthly conference calls, and up to two face–to–face meetings per year, subject to the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is a further step towards an even deeper collaboration between ELPA and EASL.
