Enhancing Standards. Delivering Excellence

This presents an exceptional opportunity to highlight your research through short paper presentations in front of colorectal professionals.

Successful submissions will be published in the ACPGBI Journal Colorectal Disease, offering further exposure. We invite you to review our submission guidelines and ensure your abstracts are submitted by the deadline.

Please note that abstracts will be published exactly as submitted, and no further edits or changes can be made once an abstract has been accepted for presentation.

The selection committee is committed to assembling a diverse and groundbreaking final program.
