Professor Debbie Shawcross features in new BBC One Panorama documentary – Binge Drinking and Me

Our very own Professor Debbie Shawcross has recently featured in BBC One's Panorama 'Binge Drinking and Me', discussing the rise in alcohol-related liver disease in young women.

Professor Shawcross is a Professor of Hepatology and Chronic Liver Failure in The Roger Williams Institute of Liver Studies at King's College London, and consultant hepatologist at King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

Her laboratory group within our School of Immunology & Microbial Sciences is working to characterise the immune-gut-liver-brain axis in patients with chronic liver disease, and develop interventions which normalise the abnormal gut microbiome and reduce the development of complications and liver failure.
