As #WashUAlum🐻, it's an incredible honor to give GI Grand Round as visiting professor at #WashU. Extra special to speak in the room named after Dr. Ray Clouse, who introduced me to the field when I was a med student & inspired me to become an investigator.

Thank you for the wonderful day ❤️

👫Societal perspective: #PPI preferred

Does pelvic anatomy impact the risk of fecal incontinence (FI)?

Our study in #CTGJournal found that smaller pelvic outlet on DXA scan independently predicted ⬆️FI

🦴Pelvic floor structure is important in mediating anorectal function
