2017 summer intern Matthew Glasgow presented his work on esophageal pH-impedance testing at the Annual Mount David Summit: A celebration of student achievement at Bates College today. Along with his co-authors, including lead author Marc Ward, Matt plans on publishing the full study this year in a peer-reviewed journal. Matt was recently awarded a competitive Summer Research Fellowship grant from Bates college with plans to return to FSIE in June where he will continue his work in clinical esophageal physiology as well as serve as Assistant Program Coordinator for the 2018 summer students. We are excited to have him back with the team! Congratulations Matt!
