As healthcare professionals, staying current on the latest research, news, and trends in functional GI diagnostics and treatment is crucial for providing the best possible care for our patients. That’s why the CDI team carefully curates a selection of industry articles and studies that directly impact how we approach functional GI disorders each month.
This month, our team provides resources and highlights from Digestive Disease Week® (DDW®) the highly anticipated annual conference for the #GIcommunity, which tool place in Chicago and online from May 6th to 9th. The conference brought together leading experts, researchers, and healthcare professionals from around the world to discuss the latest advancements and findings in the field.
DDW 2023 featured a wide range of presentations, symposiums, and interactive sessions covering various aspects of digestive diseases, including diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and management. Attendees had the opportunity to learn about groundbreaking research, innovative therapies, and emerging technologies that are reshaping the field.
Registered participants can watch session recordings, view ePosters, and access additional content on-demand through August. And don’t forget to save the date for DDW 2024, taking place May 18-24, 2024, in Washington DC.
