"The Pakistan Society of Hepatology (PSH) was founded in June 2001 in Karachi and since then PSH has been striving to improve the practice of Hepatology in Pakistan. Today, it has assumed a leading position to provide the leading platform where national and international specialists meet in regional events and workshops in addition to our flagship annual meet to discuss the latest clinical practices and guidelines."
For 25 years, PSH has championed evidence-based liver care across Pakistan. From tackling the heavy national burden of viral hepatitis B & C to formulating local clinical guidelines for metabolic liver disease, our mission remains focused on academic mentorship, postgraduate education, and clinical excellence.
"After the abstract submission deadline, all the abstracts were reviewed by our committee of experts. Top entrants were selected to present their work as oral presentations and others as poster presentation. Research awards were given to the winners at the conference."
The scientific committee rigorously evaluated submissions across viral hepatitis, clinical liver transplantation, portal hypertension, hepatobiliary surgery, and interventional endoscopy.

These superstars embody clinical excellence, research innovation, and compassionate care. Through their commitment, they inspire the next generation of hepatologists and strengthen the fight against liver disease across Pakistan."
Honoring legendary pioneers decorated with state civil awards (Sitara-e-Imtiaz, Tamgha-e-Imtiaz) and international master fellowships who have dedicated decades to eradicating viral hepatitis and building Pakistan's hepatology infrastructure.
"PSH has, since its inception, been blessed to have world leaders in field of hepatology as part of its faculty. These professionals from across the globe are at the cutting edge in clinical hepatology as well as research in the field of liver disease. This makes PSH a unique melting pot where subject specialists from the world over come and discuss the latest their field."

"We give opportunities for undergraduate and postgraduate education through regular annual meetings, endoscopic workshops and refresher courses for specialists. In addition, we also provide regular training sessions for general practitioners."
"PSH regularly conducts training workshops focused on postgraduate trainees in hepatology fellowship programs and specialists. The workshops focus on the latest updates in disease management as well as furthering skills and techniques in high end intervention procedures such as ERCP and EUS."
"Our seminars provide great opportunities for regular, region-specific, countrywide dissemination of the latest in liver disease management. This ensures that a vast number of our primary, secondary and tertiary level physicians get direct access to leading consultants in the country and from our foreign faculty."
"Our public awareness programs provide great opportunities to educate the general public and healthcare policy makers about the social and economic impact of liver disease. In addition, they are designed to educate about early disease detection and encourage a professional care seeking behaviour."
"Pakistan society of Hepatology is working on local guidelines that are specialized and cater to specific issues with the South-Asian population of patients with liver pathologies. This will not mean a re-writing of standard guidelines but rather look at how our population is different in terms of drugs doses tolerance, diagnostics and procedure access and resources available to healthcare providers."
"PSH collaboration with the PARSA/ECHO Trust aims to provide public, primary care physician, and specialist awareness through regular talks and seminars. The greater social outreach abilities of the PARSA ECHO Trust are a perfect complement to the highly specialized workings of PSH. In addition, PSH has also established a collaboration with the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) to promote international academic exchange, enhance training standards, and foster joint initiatives in research and education for liver and gastrointestinal health in Pakistan."
Community outreach, free screening camps, and tele-mentoring clinics nationwide.
