Innovative Research
Our physician scientists and clinical investigators are leading the way in enhancing the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gastrointestinal and hepatology diseases through their research.
Our division continues to conduct cutting-edge investigations of the molecular, cellular and physiological conditions of healthy and diseased states of the gastrointestinal tract, liver and pancreas.
Mission
Committed to an internationally recognized mission of basic science research, the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology conducts cutting-edge investigations into the molecular, cellular, and physiological conditions of normal and disease states of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, and pancreas. Advanced training and collaborative research involving faculty, fellows, medical students and graduate students expands the base of scientific knowledge required for cures and improved clinical outcomes.
Cellular Differentiation Program Project
Program Project Grant: Cellular Decisions of Differentiation in the GI Tract
The overall objective of this project is to further our understanding of how cells make decisions of identity and differentiation in the stomach and intestine of the gastrointestinal tract.
The Division of Gastroenterology & Hepatology conducts and participates in a number of clinical studies, in areas of research ranging from hepatitis C to Wilson Disease.
See below for information about some of the clinical studies being performed by the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology:
Gut Talk, on Healio Gastroenterology, is a podcast hosted by Dr. Sameer Berry and Dr. William Chey that explores the impact of health policy, technology, practice management, and research on the field of gastroenterology. Listen to the podcast.
Our mission is to study cell signaling and communication with the ultimate goal of identifying molecular targets and therapeutics.
Our three-year GI Fellowship Training Program prepares fellows for careers in academic medicine and is separated into three tracks, including two NIH-funded tracks:
- NIH-funded T32 Clinical Research track (“Gastroenterology/Research-Outcomes” – NRMP Program Code 1293144F2)
- NIH-funded T32 Basic/Translational Research track (“Gastroenterology/Basic Science Research” – NRMP Program Code 1293144F1)
