DECISION Meetings

The DECISION consortium headed to Madrid for our final General Assembly Meeting. Although the project continues for a few more months, coming together in person felt like closing an important chapter and reflecting on five years of collaborative work.

The first day focused on the past, present, and future of DECISION’s science. We revisited key aspects from our multi-omic analyses, explored upcoming publications, and looked ahead to future data integration and systems-level insights. The day concluded with a practical masterclass on data repositories and publication rights.

On the second day, we aligned on progress in our COMBAT and PROSPECT clinical studies and discussed upcoming analysis plans. A consortium-wide conversation on what may follow after DECISION highlighted ongoing enthusiasm and opportunities for continued collaboration.

We leave Madrid proud of our collective achievements and committed to delivering our final results in the months ahead.

Next week, the DECISION consortium will gather in Madrid for our final General Assembly Meeting; and we are ready to celebrate five years of collaboration, science, and discovery!

Since 2020, DECISION has united partners across Europe to advance research in acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). Together we’ve built an outstanding network, achieved important results, and strengthened the bridge between science, clinics, and patients.

This last meeting is both a chance to share and discuss our latest results and an opportunity to reflect on the journey we have taken together. With a smiling and a crying eye, we look forward to connecting once more as a consortium and to celebrate what we have achieved and to look ahead to what comes next.

Our 11th SC Meeting, took place on 10 April 2025 in Barcelona. These meetings are a key moment in our project timeline, an opportunity to review progress across all work packages, align on next steps, and reconnect in person.

With major updates from both clinical studies and a busy season of dissemination ahead, we had engaging discussions and shared insights that will continue to move DECISION forward.
