Primary biliary cholangitis is really a hot field at the moment. It's really turned the corner into prevention of end stage liver disease and improvement of quality of life. What we've seen across the world is investigators and patients working together to really refine our knowledge about disease and disease treatment and disease outcomes. We've got greater understanding of why people live with PBC.
