Teaching and Tomorrow

The Pediatric GI Teaching and Tomorrow Program of the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) strives to attract the best and brightest residents to subspecialty training in pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition. The Teaching and Tomorrow Program brings pediatric residents from North America to our NASPGHAN Annual Meeting to see first-hand the cutting edge basic and clinical science of our subspecialty. This year, the conference will take place October 25-27, 2018. During this period, we will also meet with these residents to share our enthusiasm for pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition, and to offer career guidance.

WHAT: Attend NASPGHAN Annual Meeting and Postgraduate Course
WHERE: Hollywood, FL
ARRIVE: October 25, 2018
DEPART: October 27, 2018

ELIGIBILITY: Pediatric Residents with an interest in pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition. It is expected that those selected will be the equivalent of a PL-2 resident at the time of the meeting or PL-3 residents considering applying for fellowship to begin in July, 2020. The program is not designed for residents currently in the process of interviewing for fellowships.

SUPPORT: NASPGHAN will provide support by extending a reduced registration fee of $200 that includes registration for the Postgraduate Course, Annual Meeting and all the Teaching and Tomorrow events. This includes orientation breakfast on Thursday, a luncheon program on Thursday, the reception with fellows and program directors on Friday, and closing breakfast on Saturday morning. Participants or sponsoring institutions will be responsible for all travel and hotel costs associated with the meeting.

APPLICATION: Residents should register for the meeting. Program information can be found here below.  Teaching and Tomorrow participants will be emailed a pre-test prior to the meeting.
