2019 CGA Annual Meeting

The 23rd CGA Annual Meeting will assemble health care professionals and researchers who care for or whose research includes individuals and families at an increased risk of gastrointestinal and other associated hereditary cancers. The conference is designed to reduce the barriers that learners face, which include lack of time to stay current on rapid advances in genetic technology and its implementation into clinical practice challenges diagnosing and managing patients with ambiguous clinical presentations and uncertain genetic test results; limited knowledge and resources about hereditary gastrointestinal cancer syndromes in the general population and ethnic minorities and limitations imposed by patients and providers to identify hereditary cancer syndromes.
