DDW: A Healthy Investment for Your Career

Whether you work in patient care or research, you invest in your profession in many ways throughout the year — hiring new staff, expanding to new office or lab space, or implementing new technology systems. One big investment you can make in its success is attending Digestive Disease Week® (DDW).

DDW is the venue to find the high-level education, new research and advanced technology you need to support career growth and best serve patients. You’ll also connect with physicians and researchers from around the globe to compare the latest techniques and solutions that are working for some of the most complex situations.

Experts lead high-level 400 original sessions and 4,000 posters covering 17 different topic tracks so that the entire field can access the current research, identify key trends and discover new techniques. The comprehensive education program includes scientific sessions, an interactive Poster Hall and ePosters. You’ll have opportunities to ask questions and give feedback to presenters. You can also earn CME and MOC credits at a variety of sessions.

DDW is the best place to see the world of GI come to life all in one place. Access over 290 exhibitors in 22 different product categories on the show floor. You’ll find the latest technologies and trends to improve your practice and patient care, or advance your research from pharmaceutical, device/instrumentation, nutrition, internet and software companies.

Finally, DDW facilitates global connections throughout the fields of gastroenterology, hepatology, endoscopy and gastrointestinal surgery. Whether you’re a trainee, early in your career or a veteran with decades of experience, you’ll benefit from interacting with others facing similar challenges in their daily practice. This year, in addition to the other networking events, join us at the San Diego Convention Center on May 17 at 4 p.m. for a special 50th Anniversary Celebration.
