HCC Lunch & Learn at University of Chicago Medicine will provide patients, caregivers, and at-risk individuals with trusted information about liver health, liver disease, and liver cancer.



CHICAGO, IL, October 01, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Blue Faery: The Adrienne Wilson Liver Cancer Association will host a free, in-person HCC Lunch & Learn on October 24, 2026, at University of Chicago Medicine, providing critical education about liver health, liver disease, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Developed in collaboration with liver cancer experts, this community event is designed to help patients, caregivers, and individuals at risk for liver cancer better understand prevention, early detection, treatment options, and available support resources.

"Knowledge can change outcomes—everyone deserves clear, trusted information and support when facing liver cancer," said Andrea Wilson Woods, Founder and President of Blue Faery.

The HCC Lunch & Learn will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. (doors open at 9:30 a.m.) at University of Chicago Medicine in the Knapp Center for Biomedical Discovery Auditorium, First Floor, Room 1103.

The free event includes a catered lunch and complimentary parking with validation. Attendees must bring their parking ticket inside for validation. Due to the serious nature of the topics discussed, attendees must be at least 16 years old, and each attendee must register separately.

Space is limited, and advance registration is encouraged.

Topics will include:

• Liver disease and HCC risk factors and symptoms
• Prevention and early detection of liver cancer
• Current treatment options for HCC
• The importance of multidisciplinary care
• Resources and support for patients and caregivers

Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common form of primary liver cancer, and many of its major risk factors are connected to chronic liver disease. Increasing awareness of those risks and helping people understand when screening and specialized care may be needed are critical parts of improving liver cancer outcomes.

Blue Faery's HCC Lunch & Learn series supports its mission to prevent, treat, and cure primary liver cancer through education, advocacy, and support.
