Save the date for DDW Virtual™
In 2021, Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) moves online as a fully virtual meeting with slightly new dates: May 21-23, 2021.
For more than 50 years, members of the digestive disease community have connected over the best science, education, and networking at DDW, and we’re confident this year will be no exception. In fact, we’re excited by opportunities the new format provides to learn, share, and connect with each other.
Watch the DDW website for more information as it becomes available. In the meantime, check out our FAQs about DDW Virtual™. If you have a question we didn’t answer, please submit a ticket to our help desk.
DDW is jointly sponsored by AGA, the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, and the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract.
We did it!
Thank you for helping us raise $231,357 on AGA Giving Day to fund health disparity research!
The past few months were unlike any we’ve ever experienced, and above all we knew we needed to take action to provide a better future for digestive health patients. That’s why AGA and the AGA Research Foundation launched AGA Giving Day to address health disparities that negatively affect our patients head on. We couldn’t have led the fight to eradicate disparities in GI without our loyal supporters.
AGA Giving Day provided an opportunity to do something about health care differences that lead to poorer outcomes due to race and socioeconomic status. Thanks to the support of all our donors and funders, we raised $231,357 to fund health disparities research.
All donations will go directly into research awards earmarked for GI health disparities research. Health disparities research is the key to understanding how we can improve disease management for every patient.
During these trying times, there is one thing that hasn’t and won’t change: our commitment to our mission of raising funds to support talented researchers in gastroenterology and hepatology. While there is still more work ahead, we know we can move forward with the help of friends like you.
Thank you for being part of our fight to eradicate disparities in GI. Learn more about our other efforts through the AGA Equity Project.
