Yale Inflammatory Bowel Disease Conference

This inaugural one-day conference will provide world-class educational programming, professional development, and networking opportunities for physicians and advanced practice providers who care for patients with inflammatory bowel disease. This program is designed to focus on the latest, most up-to-date care principles for IBD. The overall goal of this unique conference is to provide up-to-date, evidence-based education in the diagnosis and management of inflammatory bowel disease.

The Water's Edge Resort & Spa, located on the Connecticut shoreline, offers an idyllic location and is the perfect backdrop for this educational and networking experience. With ocean views on a private white sand beach, you will feel rejuvenated and refreshed after the conference. We hope you can join us this Spring!
