Through research, the GI Surgery Division aims to advance the field by developing novel care delivery models that improve surgical quality and outcomes.
The GI Surgery clinical research program, which is supported by the Surgical Innovation and Research Core, has an active interest in quality improvement for our surgical patients.
The GI Surgery basic science research program includes robust investigations into areas such as the impact of bariatric surgery on bone health, as well as how environmental exposures interact with the human body to change one’s risk for cancer.
