Research creates successful practices. Patients benefit from GI research daily in practices. Scientists are working hard to develop new treatments and therapies, and to discover cures to advance the field and better patient care. But they can’t do this without research funding.

AGA Legacy Society members have answered this call for support. They recognize the value that research has had in their profession, both in academic medicine and in private practice, and are showing their appreciation by giving back.

Dr. Michael Camilleri

“I donated to the AGA Research Foundation to ensure the vitality of our specialty, and to fund the research of future generations of gastroenterologists,” said Michael Camilleri, MD, AGAF, of Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., and an AGA Legacy Society member who currently serves as AGA Research Foundation Chair. “Funding from organizations like the AGA Research Foundation is crucial for young scientists and gastroenterologists to launch their careers. At the start of my career, I received two AGA research awards. As a grateful recipient of such funding, I felt it was my turn to support the mission of the organization that I regard as my academic home away from home institution.”

AGA Legacy Society members see the promise the future holds and are committed to furthering research in gastroenterology and hepatology through their generous donations. 

AGA members who make gifts at the AGA Legacy Society level any time before Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) 2025 will receive an invitation to the AGA Research Foundation Benefactor’s Event in San Diego, California.
