Scientific summary

Overall, my research is focused on the role of vessels in liver diseases. On the clinical side, I am interested in primary vascular liver diseases (Budd-Chiari syndrome, extrahepatic portal vein thrombosis and obstruction of intrahepatic portal veins), as well as in vascular involvement in cirrhosis development and complications. On the basic side, my objectives are to identify the role of extracellular vesicles and of autophagy in liver diseases.
