Harvard GI Motility & Brain-Gut Disorders 2024 — where the evidence ends and expert consensus begins
The Harvard GI Motility & Brain-Gut Disorders: Evidence Vs Consensus course is the one-day neurogastroenterology meeting run by Brigham and Women’s Hospital on 19 October 2024. Instead of long lectures, the morning uses case panels on the stomach and small bowel, the oesophagus, and the colon and anorectum, each followed by a short talk. The afternoon moves to hands-on testing: manometry, reflux monitoring, breath tests, EndoFLIP, tracing review and classes for advanced practice providers and behavioural therapists.

- Add brain-gut behavioural therapies, diet and pelvic floor physiotherapy to your plan
Inside the course
Morning case panels
Braden Kuo, Walter Chan and Kyle Staller moderate multidisciplinary panels of gastroenterologists, paediatric specialists, nurse practitioners and a PA. Short talks on anti-obesity medication, oropharyngeal dysphagia and digital tools, virtual reality and AI for gut-brain disorders sit between them.
Basic testing class
Eight 30-minute stations explain oesophageal and anorectal manometry, reflux monitoring, breath testing, EndoFLIP, gastric and small-bowel testing, dietary therapy and pelvic floor physiotherapy.
Harvard GI Motility course advanced and specialist tracks
An advanced class reviews real motility and reflux tracings with a large faculty panel, the APP track covers cannabis for GI symptoms, ARFID red flags and anal Pap screening, and psychologists Sarah Ballou and Julie Snyder show how to build behavioural therapy into a GI clinic.

Before you buy
Are all the parallel breakouts recorded?
The agenda runs four breakout tracks at the same time, and it is not confirmed that every room was filmed. The morning panels and talks are the core of the recordings; treat the hands-on stations as possibly partial.
Who are the advanced-class discussants?
Sixteen Harvard-affiliated gastroenterologists, including Corey Baker, Albena Halpert, Trisha Pashricha and Sanskriti Varma, join the tracing review alongside the three moderators.
Why is the price low?
It is a single-day course, so there is far less content than in a multi-day review.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
