CAG Fellow Designation

It is equally open to those in medical practice or research. Fellows will be announced in December and a Fellow reception will be held at CDDW™ the year following.

 

 

The Canadian Association of Gastroenterology Fellow (CAGF) distinction is an esteemed honour for CAG members who have demonstrated long-term commitment to the Association and to furthering the goals of advancing GI practice and research in Canada. The designation allows the person to use the CAGF suffix professionally. All other rights and requirements are those of a Regular Member (including membership fees and CDDW™ registration).
