Hands-on Endoscopy Workshops

Hands-on Endoscopy Workshop Directors: Laith H. Jamil, MD, FACG and Lauren G. Khanna, MD, MS

The always-popular FREE Hands-on Endoscopy Workshop Center sessions will again be offered in the Exhibit Hall, Sunday – Tuesday. Learn from the expert faculty who will demonstrate techniques using a wide variety of equipment and products. Attendees will then have an opportunity to practice using the equipment. Pre-registration is required for all sessions. Special trainee-only and resident-only sessions will be offered.

Also, don't miss the EndoTitans Hands-on Challenge taking place Sunday, October 23rd from 5:15 pm - 7:00 pm in the Hands-on Endoscopy Workshop Center. The EndoTitans Challenge is an opportunity for fellows to demonstrate both their knowledge and technical abilities in endoscopy. The challenge begins over the summer with a preliminary knowledge round open to all second- and third-year fellows. The top scoring fellows from each year are then invited to participate in a skills challenge. Winners will take home both bragging rights and a travel grant for ACG 2023. Join us in the Hands-On Endoscopy Workshop Center of the Exhibit Hall to cheer on the competitors.
