Digestive and Liver Diseases / Nursing

Overview

The Digestive & Liver Diseases / Nursing research area is composed by three groups, whose main goal is to develop basic and traslational studies on the most frequent and impacting digestive and liver disorders afflicting the general population. In particular, the group of Physiology and Pathophysiology of the Digestive Tract integrates investigations on the function of the gastrointestinal tract including secretion, motility and absorption with cellular, molecular, immune and genetic aspects and their interactions with the microbiota and the brain-gut axis. The Liver Diseases Group deals clinical and basic research in viral hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, liver cancer and also non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and their complications. Finally, our area includes the Multidisciplinar Nursing research group which aims to generate knowledge in the specific area of activity of nurses and collaborate with other health professionals to improve care given to patients.
