Decades of research have revolutionized the care of many digestive disease patients. These patients, as well as everyone in the GI field – clinicians and researchers alike, have benefited from the discoveries of dedicated investigators, past and present. Creative young investigators are poised to make groundbreaking discoveries that will shape the future of gastroenterology. As the charitable arm of the AGA, the AGA Research Foundation provides a key source of funding at a critical juncture in a young researcher’s career.
“To continue to improve the diagnosis and treatment of digestive disease, we need innovative researchers with new approaches. This kind of scientific exploration has the potential to make a tremendous impact on the future of health care,” states Dr. Robert S. Sandler, chair of the AGA Research Foundation and AGA Legacy Society member.
