When Dana passed away, her @UofMaryland mentor @jenpre, friends and family set up a scholarship fund to support travel of @INFOCollegeUMD PhD students to conferences. In the past 6 years, 35 students benefited from the fund. Several already became faculty. A real success. >>

Saddened to hear about the untimely passing of Stephen Harrison, a giant who has moved the #MASLD field in leaps, not steps, towards better understanding and treatment. His legacy remains with us for many many years. RIP.
