This week friends of the show Stacey Collins, RD and Josie McGarva, GI Psychologist join us to recap the Crohn's & Colitis Congress. Congress is a conference for IBD HealthCare providers and researchers that's held by the American Gastroenterological Association and the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation. This conference focuses on the total care of people living with IBD from bench research to bedside and both Stacey and Josie  presented about their research and work. We talked about what they spoke on, what they learned, what left them feeling hopeful both professionally and as patients with IBD, and their thoughts on how the conference can improve and evolve. It may sound like a stuffy conversation but we had a lot of fun and laughs in this conversation with our friends.

For this first episode of my limited series, Summer of Activism, I’m answering a question that I hear regularly: how it is that I go to medical meetings such as Digestive Disease Week, Advances in IBD, or Crohn’s and Colitis Congress. I give you the answer as well as tips on how patients, bloggers, podcasters, and vloggers can work towards attending these, and other, scientific meetings. Here’s a spoiler: it takes dedication to improving the lives of people with IBD, commitment to doing the work consistently, and some professional networking.   Find Amber J Tresca at: Verywell: https://www.verywell.com/ibd-crohns-colitis-4014703 Blog: http://aboutibd.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aboutIBD/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/aboutIBD Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/aboutibd/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/about_IBD/   Credit: "About IBD with Amber Tresca" ©Cooney Studio http://cooneystudio.com/
