Gastroenterology Fellowship Research

The Division of Gastroenterology faculty and fellows annually maintain a wealth of scholarly activity, contributing a wealth of scientific knowledge and clinically significant results to their disciplines. Our division places a high priority on sharing their findings with the scientific community at large. In the last three years, the GI division has enumerated over 100 peer-reviewed publications and specialty meeting presentations. Please find below a representative sample of recent Division publications.
