His group has strong collaborations with national groups within the UK and international groups in the US, Europe, Asia and Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Before the #FGDebate, Professor El-Omar says:<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;How do you succeed in clinical academia?? It is a long and tough road but one that is immensely rewarding. The basic personal attributes must of course be present at the outset; these include an inquisitive mind, hunger for knowledge, hard work ethic, tenacity and single mindedness. But none of these matter unless one has opportunities to engage in research. These opportunities can arise by luck (being in the right place at the right time), or arise due to careful and nurturing mentorship. No one should wait for luck to pay a visit; they should seek and make their own luck. As some famous golfers once said \u201cthe harder I practice, the luckier I get!\u201d. The more traditional route to success is through mentorship and the role of mentors cannot be over emphasised. Mentors inspire, guide and nurture us and allow us to see the hope and potential within our souls. They offer a paternal shoulder when things are tough and a kick up the proverbial when we slacken off! Through this debate, we hope you will see how true the following proverb is \u201cIf at first you don\u2019t succeed, try and try again.\u201d We very much hope you enjoy this debate.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to seeing you on the Sunday 21st December at 12 noon GMT.<!--TrendMD v2.4.8--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After the great success of the Hepatology\u00a0#FGDebate with Professor Sir Ian Gilmore, we are delighted to announce our fourth\u00a0debate and &#8216;Christmas Special&#8217;
