OUR MISSION
The NASH Education Program’s mission is to increase public awareness of NASH by driving educational initiatives, producing essential and relevant scientific and medical knowledge, and disseminating the aforementioned content to targeted audiences:
- All medical specialties (going beyond hepato-gastroenterologists, i.e. including diabetologists, endocrinologists, obesity specialists, cardiologists, OB-GYN and general practitioners) who all have a key role to play in the clinical management of NASH patients;
- Current patients and their families, but also individuals at risk, who are in need of understanding the causes, mechanisms and consequences of the disease to better manage its progression. Furthermore, this information will help to educate the broader community on importance of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment options specific for their condition.
Through this approach focusing on both practitioners and patients, The NASH Education Program ensures that its initiatives are relevant, have a tangible and positive impact on disease awareness, and ultimately contribute to improving the NASH patient journey.
The NASH Global Health ObservatoryTM is a survey program dedicated to better understanding practitioners’ and patients’ unmet needs, based on the evaluation of their perceptions and level of knowledge.
