CLiC - Cholestatic Liver Disease Consortium
The Cholestatic Liver Disease Consortium (CLiC) is now part of ChiLDREN, the Childhood Liver Disease Research and Education Network. The new network combines CLiC and the Biliary Atresia Research Consortium (BARC), as well as new studies on cystic fibrosis liver disease. This consolidation seeks to facilitate our ability to discover new diagnostics, etiologic, and treatment options for children with liver disease, and those who undergo liver transplantation, and to train the next generation of investigators in rare pediatric liver diseases.
Diseases Researched:
PFIC (Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis)
Bile Acid Synthesis Defects
Alagille Syndrome
Alpha One Antitrypsin Deficiency
Mitochondrial Hepatopathies
