Very proud of our PhD student Srikant Ojha for winning the Best Poster Price and giving a talk at Falk Foundation Symposium.

[Srikant Ojha @sojha148]

Honored to receive Best Poster Award at the Falk Foundation Workshop: All Aspects of Fibrosis in Berlin!

Also attended Symposium 242: Advances in Hepatology- an inspiring opportunity to share my research and connect with leading experts.

Grateful to organizers & Falk Foundation
