AGA Research Foundation
The AGA Research Foundation is AGA’s charitable arm. Through the foundation, AGA offers research grants to young investigators to foster scientific discovery that will ultimately improve the care of patients with digestive diseases.
We Need Your Support
Research is the only way to advance our field and improve the understanding, prevention, treatment and cure of digestive diseases.
AGA is committed to supporting future research, but the availability of our awards depends on your funding. By funding a grant through the AGA Research Foundation, you can:
• Kickstart the research careers of creative young scientists working towards improving the health and outcomes of patients with digestive disorders.
• Help keep young investigators in research, during a time when federal research funding is limited.
• Showcase your commitment to advancing research, with the ultimate goal of finding new diagnostics and treatments for patients.
