College Park Marriott Hotel and Conference Center

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a major problem for drug development and clinical care. Several unresolved problems require new understanding and consensus. Especially difficult is much greater costs of adequate safety studies than for the proof of efficacy. This international academic-industry-government conference will discuss current findings and thinking on DILI and drug safety by expert hepatology, toxicology and special presentations. We encourage you to register, come, participate, and debate the issues for development of new agreements and guidance.
