16th Annual Inflammatory Bowel Disease Course

Friday, October 11, 2019, 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM, ISMMS, Goldwurm Auditorium


The Mount Sinai Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Consultant's Course will provide an in-depth review of strategies for participants to better diagnosis, classify and achieve remission in patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. State-of-the-art lectures will be given by expert faculty on optimizing therapies, innovative treatment of fistula, epidemiology of IBD and challenging clinical scenarios such as cancer prevention in colitis, IBD in pregnant and nursing mothers and the elderly. The goal is to meet the need of our IBD patients by addressing sub-optimal disease control, preventable disease complications, and potential negative consequences of therapy such as serious infections and cancer.
