The next Early–Mid Career #Hepatology Research Forum is taking place on Tuesday, June 17, 2025 at 7:15 A.M. in the Level 3 Auditorium, QIMR Berghofer.

🌟 An inspiring afternoon with Prof. Nathan Palpant, Prof. Denise Doolan, and Prof. Loïc YENGO discussing leadership in research!

💡 We explored how leadership shapes EMCR career development, fosters collaboration, and builds strong research teams.
