The Liver is a program comprised of three modules that focus on the functional and structural relationship between the liver cells, the mechanisms by which bile salts and bilirubin are transported as well as understanding the metabolism of bilirubin. The program also contains interactive, self-testing questions for students to assess their understanding of the main principles discussed.

Students who complete this program should be able to:

• Integrate and apply knowledge learnt from basic and clinical sciences.
• Interpret clinical findings and laboratory results in the area of Hepatology.
• Build models of the liver and enterohepatic circulation.
• Enhance their problem solving skills including hypotheses generation, mechanism building and information seeking.
