How We Do It

Based on continued positive feedback regarding the “How We Do It” sessions that originally debuted in Nashville in 2022, we are looking to incorporate some of these presentations into the 2024 Annual Meeting in Philadelphia. As a reminder, the “How We Do It” sessions are geared towards highlighting aspects of clinical practice in hereditary gastrointestinal cancer that you and your center do best. 

We invite applications on any topic relevant to the field of hereditary gastrointestinal cancers. Applications require the names of the two or more speakers who would take part in the presentation, a brief description of the proposed content, and one learning objective per speaker. At least one speaker needs to be an active CGA-IGC member. We encourage including at least one speaker from a non-traditional CGA-IGC discipline (e.g. not a genetic counselor, gastroenterologist, oncologist, or colorectal surgeon).

Each “How We Do It” presentation will be 20-30 minutes. The preferred format is interactive and case-based if possible.

The submission period will close on April 30, 2024. You can submit more than one application.  Previous applications that have not yet been presented to the CGA audience are welcome for re-submission. All applications will be reviewed by the CGA-IGC Meeting Planning Committee. Those chosen to participate in the “How We Do It” sessions will receive complimentary registration for speakers in non-traditional CGA-IGC disciplines.
