Texas Society for Gastroenterology and Endoscopy is a statewide professional association for physicians to improve the knowledge, skills, and standard of care in the field of gastroenterology, hepatology, and gastrointestinal endoscopy. The Academic Task Force of TSGE promotes professional development of fellows and faculty members and enhances exchanges between academic programs and the GI community at large in education and practice development.
The purpose of the grant is aimed at improving and supporting research, education, disease awareness and prevention as well as patient supported activities. We hope the approved grant will advance the TSGE mission and benefit patients with GI and Liver diseases in Texas.
