AGA Research Scholar Awards Advance the GI Field

The AGA Research Foundation plays an important role in medical research by providing grants to young scientists at a critical time in their career. AGA’s flagship award is the Research Scholar Award, which provides career development support for young investigators in gastroenterology and hepatology research. In the last 10 years, the AGA Research Foundation has funded 63 young scientists through a Research Scholar Award grant.

“I want to express my sincere gratitude to the AGA Research Foundation and its benefactors. At this fragile and critical juncture, this AGA Research Scholar Award offers an unmatched opportunity to pursue the type of high-impact scientific work that allows a junior investigator such as myself to achieve the necessary momentum to create a nationally competitive research program,” states Alexander , MD, PhD, the Regent of the University of California, Los Angeles, 2023 AGA Research Scholar Award recipient.

Funded by the generosity of donors, the AGA Research Foundation’s research award program ensures that we are building a community of researchers whose work serves the greater community and benefits all our patients.
