Mission Statement
The Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition unites physicians and scientists for excellence in patient care, education and research, providing the best of tomorrow’s medicine, today.
Continuing Education Credit
The University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
The University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine designates this live activity for a maximum of 14.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.™ Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
Other health care professionals are awarded 1.4 continuing education units (CEU’s) which are equal to 14.7 contact hours.
Objectives At the conclusion of this program, participants should be able to:
• Define the genetic risks, markers, and treatment of pancreatic diseases, including pancreatic cancer as well as acute and chronic pancreatitis.
• Debate the mechanisms determining abnormal responses to injury and inflammation related to pancreatic pain, pediatric pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancer.
• Discuss application of new insights into disease mechanisms for new patient-centered care models, including the role of academic centers of excellence.
• Foster the development of multidisciplinary, fluid and interactive models to treat pancreas diseases and pancreatic pain.
Who Should Attend
PancreasFest 2016 is designed for gastroenterologists, surgeons, oncologists, radiologists, basic and clinical researchers and all physicians interested in pancreatic diseases. Physicians and scientists committed to translational research, cooperative studies and career development are strongly encouraged to attend.
