About the Network
Helping people
living with
cirrhosis
stay healthy.
The Liver Cirrhosis Network (LCN) brings together 10 leading institutions with expertise in caring for patients with cirrhosis. Cirrhosis is common cause of death and disability in the U.S.
The LCN was formed for two reasons. First, we hope to discover why and how patients with cirrhosis get sick with complications of cirrhosis. Second, we will launch a trial to see if a statin improves the health of patients with cirrhosis.

The structure of the LCN consists of a Scientific Data Coordinating Center (SDCC) and 10 clinical centers. The LCN is sponsored by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), a division of the National Institutes of Health. The Network is also supported by National Cancer Institute (NCI) and National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA).

My Brother and I
Commissioned in 2002, “My Brother and I” depicts brothers William Mayo, M.D., and Charles Mayo, M.D., as they are in an iconic photograph taken on their front porch. The title of the statue honors the close relationship between the two brothers and their insistence that any honors would recognize “My brother and I.”
“My Brother and I” was created by Tuck Langland in cast bronze.
