COUNCIL CHAIR: RHONDA SOUZA, MD, AGAF

“I LOVE DDW, and I am honored and excited to have been chosen as the next AGA Institute Council chair. My goal is to create a DDW meeting that will invigorate and energize the minds of clinicians and scientists, both young and seasoned, reassuring them that their choice of a career in gastroenterology was the right one! I will work with the AGA Institute Council members to create unique and non-redundant programming that will challenge unsubstantiated dogma, showcase cutting-edge concepts and technologies, and highlight developments that impact clinical practice, making DDW the “must go to” professional meeting each year!”
