The video is the second in the series “The Stories Behind the Science” and follows Michael Camilleri, MD, AGAF, of Mayo Clinic. He brings viewers inside the Mayo Clinic laboratory to discuss the exciting renaissance period for IBS.
With funding from the AGA Research Foundation, Dr. Camilleri and his team has been able to develop new tools for treating IBS, with the ultimate goal of personalizing IBS patient care. He first received the funding in 1992 and since then has developed and validated a noninvasive transit measurement allowing physicians to assess how fast or slow content moves through the colon.
This year, the foundation will award more than $2 million in gastroenterology and hepatology research grants.
