RESEARCH OUTREACH

Founding director and PI of the San Diego Integrated NAFLD Research Consortium (SINC): The San Diego Integrated NAFLD Research Consortium was established by Dr. Loomba (see publication no. 30) in 2011 with the goal of enhancing collaboration between doctors and working groups interested in the research and care of patients with NAFLD. The consortium includes experts of fatty liver disease from 4 major medical centers in the San Diego region including UCSD, Sharp Health Care, Kaiser Permanente, and Balboa Naval Medical Center. Experts from these sites work together on research to advance the understanding of NAFLD.

Research collaboration with Southwestern Oncology Group (SWOG), a National Cancer Institute sponsored research consortia, in understanding the burden of viral hepatitis in cancer patients across SWOG sites in the United States. Overall goal is to better define the epidemiology of viral hepatitis and risk of recurrence of hepatitis B and C and reducing liver related morbidity and mortality in this group of patients. 2010- present
