Talk to Heal - Session 3: Learn more about Biliary Atresia

The Hepaturix Association in Portugal is currently developing a new project and is organising several events as part of this in 2025. In addition to the Hepaturix Association, the Paediatric Hospital of Coimbra and members of our ERN RARE-LIVER Youth Panel are involved as well.

Back to overview

The “Talk to Heal” project aims to address various topics related to managing specific pathologies, fostering communication between patients of different ages and experiences. The project includes sessions of approximately 2 hours, with a coffee break and opportunities for socialising. These sessions include contributions from healthcare professionals, patient testimonies and Q&A discussions.

This third session of the Talk to Heal project will take place on 27 September 2025 at 10 am. The focus of this session will be Biliary Atresia (BA). Participants will explore how Biliary Atresia impacts everyday life, with special attention to early diagnosis, treatment options, and the importance of lifestyle adjustments. The first two Talk to Heal sessions this year each welcomed over 20 participants, who came together in an open and supportive setting to discuss Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) and Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD).
