15th Annual Inflammatory Bowel Disease: The Art and Science in the Diagnosis and Treatment 2022

Boston, MA US
September 22, 2022 to September 23, 2022

Join us in-person or virtually for IBD Boston 2022. 

Each year, the Boston IBD conference  brings top gastroenterology specialists from North America together with up-and-coming Boston area specialists for a 1.5 day CME/CNE program. This program is designed to stimulate conversations about how to initiate practice changes within the IBD healthcare team in in the diagnosis and management of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC).  Through keynote talks, panel discussions and breakout sessions, you will be challenged to develop innovative strategies to improve the quality of life for your patients while prolonging clinical remission. The city of Boston provides an excellent backdrop for this educational and networking experience – we hope you can join us in person – or – if you prefer – from the comfort of your home or office through a virtual live stream. 

What past attendees have said about the Boston IBD Meeting:

  • "Excellent conference! Case discussions were good."

  • "Wonderful and as always highly educational! Provides useful information we can apply to our practice daily."
