Gut Moving was a total win! Thanks to the incredible energy and generosity of our community, the ELC raised over $10,000 net—enough to fund at least one Young Investigator Award and help power the next wave of innovative GI research.
More than 65 participants showed up ready to move, sweat, and connect. The day featured everything from energizing yoga and interval training to B12 shots from Raden Wellness, coffee fueled by Of Course Coffee Roasters, and seriously tasty bites from Mendocino Farms.
We’re so grateful to everyone who joined us and brought the good vibes—your support made this event unforgettable.
Established in 1997, the GI Research Foundation’s Emerging Leaders Council (ELC) invests in bold, early-stage research to prevent, treat, and ultimately cure digestive diseases. The ELC empowers rising physicians and scientists who are making breakthroughs in the field.
More than 70 million Americans live with conditions like Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, IBS, celiac disease, and GI cancers. These diseases can be debilitating—and in some cases, fatal. Treatments are improving, but many cures have yet to be discovered.
