Preface

There is a rapid progress with respect to “New Treatment Targets in Gut and Liver Diseases” in recent years . New compounds have changed the approach to hepatitis C therapy fundamentally . After years of disappointing clinical trials new drugs have been and will be introduced in IBD treatment . It is important for gastroenterologists to be up to date with respect to these developments . We think that the program of the Symposium 205 will provide you with the most comprehensive update on these topics .

Outstanding scientists, clinicians and speakers have confirmed their attendance . The meeting venue, the KKL in Lucerne and the landscape of the Vierwaldstädter lake in the center of Switzerland will provide a marvelous setting for the meeting . In contrast to the big conferences where sometimes the program is confusing and overflowing the con-densed information provided in our more informal meeting will certainly influence the participants’ clinical practice .

We hope that the program will be of interest for you and look forward to meet you in beautiful Lucerne .

On behalf of the scientific organizers
