HPB News
The Barts and the London HPB Centre celebrates its 10th birthday this year and held a symposium on the 29th of April to mark this. This was followed by The London Pancreas Workshop on the 30th April. This international workshop covered key laboratory and clinical aspects of pancreatic disease. The faculty included speakers from Baltimore, Verona, Stockholm, Munich, Liverpool, Cambridge & London.
The Lewin International Fellowship will be available again this year to a trainee doctor interested in carrying out research on aspects of pancreatic disease. An advertisement will be posted in the British Medical Journal this summer.
