In a special bonus episode, hosts Dr. Jennifer Lee and Dr. Temara Hajjat talk to Dr. John Rosen from Children's Mercy Kansas City about how technology and innovation are integral parts of our work as pediatric gastroenterologists. He explains how we in the pediatric gastroenterologist community (and in the medical community in general) can take an idea and bring it to the clinic where it can impact patient care.
He also talks about the first Baby Shark Tank competition at this year's NASPGHAN Single Topic Symposium, The Next 50 Years: Technology and the Future of Pediatric Gastroenterology. If you or your collaborator are part of NASPGHAN and have an idea you believe will improve how we care for children with gastrointestinal disorders, read more about the competition and submit your innovation by clicking here!
CME for NASPGHAN members is available here!
