- Abstract
The European Biliary Atresia Registry (EBAR) was founded in 2001 in order to raise awareness of the rare disease biliary atresia and to reinforce international and interdisciplinary cooperation. The number of participating centres and registered patients increases continuously. EBAR activities can be found at the website www.biliary-atresia.com. A first evaluation of the EBAR data is scheduled for 2006, when the registry will alter its infrastructure. This meeting will be organized together with the European Federation for Biliary Atresia Research (EFBAR), a scientific committee, which was founded in 2003. The objectives of this association are to create clinical and basic research studies, which are based on existing registries in Europe.
