Videos

In this introductory video, Prof. Dr. Jonel Trebicka, the scientific coordinator of MICROB-PREDICT, provides an overview of the core objectives and focus of the MICROB-PREDICT project.

 

22 European institutions join forces in MICROB-PREDICT to improve the prevention and treatment of chronic liver disease (cirrhosis).

 

Former radio moderator (now medical hepatologist) Prof. Dr. Maja Thiele from Odense University Hospital in Denmark interviews Marko Korenjak, the current president of the European Liver Patients’ Association (ELPA) about MICROB-PREDICT, a large 6-year-long EU research project that kicked off in January 2019.

 

In this interview, Marko Korenjak, president of the European Liver Patients Association (ELPA), inquires about the key results of the large PREDICT study and their meaning for liver disease patients. Prof. Dr. Jonel Trebicka, principal investigator on the PREDICT study and scientific coordinator of MICROB-PREDICT, provides answers and insights.

 

In this video, the project’s scientific coordinator, Prof. Dr. Jonel Trebicka, explains why, how, and what MICROB-PREDICT researchers do to reveal the involvement of the human gut microbiome in the complex pathophysiology of late-stage cirrhosis and how the project’s treatment approach may decrease the mortality rate of ACLF patients. The video is a recording of the 2nd presentation given at an online patient event that was jointly organised by ELPA and EF CLIF.
