The Division of Pediatric Surgery and the Department of Surgery are honored to be able to share a two-day visit with Dr. Grant Ramm for Brown colleagues interested in liver research. Dr. Ramm's visit to Providence coincides with the AASLD meetings in Boston.
Dr. Ramm has always held one of the most unique perspectives on the initial triggers and mechanisms of liver fibrosis and now shares a common interest with us in liver repair. He will be speaking to diverse groups throughout our campus, as you can tell by his itinerary, and will be available to visit any labs should you wish to contact him on Wednesday or early Thursday. During the time when he is not presenting, we will be presenting cases to him for consideration at Pediatric Surgery Grand Rounds to get his basic science perspectives. He will also be working with the Division on a long-standing collaboration that has been underscored by the recent NIH grant.
