4. 0:13easel European Association for the study
5. 0:16of the liver and we're in London for
6. 0:18among other things ilc which will be
7. 0:21down the road and obviously today's
8. 0:22impact project here in Calverton last
9. 0:25week we had some equally illustrious
10. 0:27professors who went to speak to medical
11. 0:29students at the UCL medical school to
12. 0:33see what we can do to encourage those
13. 0:35people no longer kids but I think
14. 0:38they're in their fourth or fifth year of
15. 0:39med school and to encourage them to
16. 0:41consider hepatology as a as a
17. 0:44professional specialization so today
18. 0:47this was our first step into doing
19. 0:49things Beyond The Four Walls of our
20. 0:51Congress during the Congress time and
21. 0:53the idea is that when we when we leave
22. 0:55in a week's time that we will have we
23. 0:58will have had some positive impact on
24. 1:00the local Society local kids local
25. 1:03population in general so that we can
26. 1:05actually say we have some kind of Legacy
27. 1:07some kind of impact my name is Kosh
28. 1:09agawal I'm a consultant hepatologist and
29. 1:11Transplant physician at The Institute of
30. 1:14studies Kings College Hospital in London
31. 1:16so it's been a nice morning
32. 1:18um so we had a 20 to 30 minute
33. 1:21discussion where I talked about my job
34. 1:25and what the liver is and how you can
35. 1:26look after your liver and then we had a
36. 1:28lot of questions around how the liver
37. 1:30works and and then we the the kids are
38. 1:34going into their classrooms and they're
39. 1:37putting a post together or some piece of
40. 1:39art together and really to get home
41. 1:44those messages and to have an
42. 1:46understanding around how to look after
43. 1:48your liver and what we've talked about
44. 1:50today
45. 1:51um so my name is Miss abiola I'm a
46. 1:53teacher here year six teacher at
47. 1:55Calverton primary school and um today if
48. 1:58I'm being completely honest it's we've
49. 2:00been quite lucky I would say because
50. 2:02right now obviously we've never had a
51. 2:05workshop such as this especially to
52. 2:07touch on something so important and I
53. 2:09think something that we've all sort of
54. 2:11underestimated as well especially when
55. 2:13it comes to the liver with eating
56. 2:14healthy obviously you need to choose
57. 2:16vegetables over obviously like takeaway
58. 2:18and fast food yep so this is the post
59. 2:21that I made and uh this is the baby
60. 2:25liver wearing liver nappies you need to
61. 2:28have one of your five a day vegetables
62. 2:30fruit look after your liver ingest
63. 2:33healthy food violent attacks of sugar
64. 2:36leave her in a bad mood everyone knows
65. 2:38she's like an engine run at chemicals in
66. 2:41the blood system younger people are
67. 2:44often at the stage where they're still
68. 2:46habit-forming and and the habits of
69. 2:50exercise and a healthy diet at this age
70. 2:54I think can make that messaging to make
71. 2:56a massive difference and I hope it has
72. 2:58been fun and educational for the kids
73. 3:01today we've been looking forward to this
74. 3:04since since I started in the job which
75. 3:06was at the end of 2019 originally we
76. 3:09were meant to be here in London in April
77. 3:112020 and then we had to put it off we
78. 3:14had to postpone it then we had to go to
79. 3:15digital so finally we're back here in
80. 3:18person and hopefully tomorrow there'll
81. 3:20be five six thousand people joining us
