OVERVIEW 

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a challenging condition, requiring an integrated, multidisciplinary, and personalized approach to care. This eighth annual CME- and MOC-accredited course is focused on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of complex IBD. This course features a multidisciplinary faculty of national leaders and an interactive format.

Exploring the evolving landscape of IBD treatments and positioning therapies; evaluating the role of extraintestinal manifestations; optimal use of imaging; surgery as an integral part of care; and special considerations, such as IBD comprehensive care and IBD management in special patient populations, will be addressed

This course will be offered in-person only.
