You’ve spent countless hours conducting research, compiling data and drafting your abstract. Your work strengthens understanding, elevates clinical practice and helps shape the future of digestive disease research. ASGE’s Abstract Awards celebrate the dedication, precision and perseverance it takes to transform scientific research into meaningful discoveries. Submit your abstract information (abstract name, submission number and author) to apply to be considered to receive one of ASGE’s Abstract Awards.
Dr. Michael Levy was a dedicated educator and champion for advancing Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS). In recognition of his legacy and generous support of the ASGE Foundation, ASGE created a named award to promote EUS education, research and training. This annual award invites eligible fellows to submit EUS-focused abstracts for presentation consideration at DDW.
Eligibility and Criteria
The top abstract will be identified through the DDW EUS subcommittee review process, with the final selection made by the EUS SIG.
Award Recipient Will Receive
One $1,000 travel award will be provided, along with public recognition at DDW and during the awards reception. The stipend is intended to support travel, lodging and meal expenses. Conference registration will also be arranged for you. The recipient will also receive complimentary access to EUS training videos through GI LEAP.
Since 2007, the ASGE Diversity Awards have recognized outstanding research focused on gastrointestinal diseases affecting underserved and underrepresented populations. The awards honor researchers whose work advances understanding of healthcare disparities and promotes equity in digestive health and endoscopy. The awards recognize excellence in research addressing the needs of underserved and underrepresented populations; eligibility and selection are based on the quality and relevance of the research, not on the personal characteristics of the researcher.
Two awards are presented annually to first authors of abstracts accepted to Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) that focus on underrepresented populations. One award recognizes research related to race and ethnicity, and one award recognizes research related to gender. Abstracts should demonstrate scientific merit and contribute to improving healthcare outcomes for underserved or underrepresented populations, including women, racial and ethnic minorities, and LGBTQ+ communities.
Endoscopy Quality Improvement Project (EQuIP) Prizes are designed to promote quality improvement projects that have the potential to transform quality in endoscopy.
To be considered, abstracts must meet the following criteria: (1) the first author of the abstract must be a trainee and (2) the abstract must address a quality improvement project conducted to improve the delivery of GI endoscopy services that was led by the trainee.
