We will aim to build on the successes of previous years by showcasing the best of British gastroenterology, hepatology and endoscopy with hundreds of abstracts being presented orally or as posters.

Our annual conference in Liverpool will aim to build on the successes of previous years by showcasing the best of British gastroenterology, hepatology and endoscopy with hundreds of abstracts being presented orally or as posters.

The meeting will feature an Endoscopy Village where you can get hands-on, 1:1 training in a variety of endoscopic techniques – do book training sessions as they are likely once more to be very popular.

Providing excellent patient care is a team effort, with all involved playing a vital role, from those understanding the basic science of disease, developing new treatments to all delivering the care in the clinic, on the ward and in the endoscopy unit. We are sure that the meeting will be of interest and benefit to consultants, trainees, nurses, dieticians and scientists involved in GI research.

We receive superb support from our industry partners, some of who are hosting their own symposia and all will be present in the exhibition space throughout the meeting. Please make sure you take the time to visit them to find out about the latest exciting developments.

On behalf of the Programme Committee of the BSG we very much hope that you will enjoy BSG 2017 – we expect the event to be fun and stimulating.
