In this episode, Pradeep speaks with Professor Patrizia Burra (University of Padua, Italy; Chair of UEG Public Affairs Group) and Dr Jorge Amil Dias (Hospital Lusíadas, Porto, Portugal; ESPGHAN representative in UEG Public Affairs Committee).

  • How to manage the challenges of IBD, liver disease, transplantation, and other chronic GI conditions during transition.
  • The importance of empowering adolescents early and preparing families for this process.
  • Practical steps for setting up a transition service and avoiding common pitfalls.
  • The role of education, policy, and awareness in shaping future care.
