So, welcome to the Senior Fellows Program at ASGE. Doug Fishman from Baylor College of Medicine, Texas Children's. I'm Stephen Kim from UCLA, and I have my UCLA fellows back there. We have our Baylor fellows somewhere in the back corner there. Oh, yeah, right. That's us. So we have an incredible faculty. So one of the things, Steve and I represent the training committee from ASGE, and one of the great things we get to do is help put together both the first-year fellows courses as well as this course, and be able to invite really stellar people from around the country to participate. And so we're excited that we get to introduce you through the course of this weekend some really excellent people, both in all realms of gastroenterology. So it's very exciting, and people that I've known since I was in training, and Stephen as well. It's just kind of fun to be able to see everybody and get back. Because I think GI is kind of like camp a little bit. If you ever went to sleepaway camp, you get to see people every summer, and you may not see them again, and you're good friends again. So I don't know if you've gotten that. So this is the Senior Fellows Program. We have some exhibits, and we have some sponsorship from these companies, Boston Scientific, Fujifilm, Olympus, Pentax, and Sanofi. And the exhibits are also supported by Fujifilm and GI Alliance. All right, so there's free Wi-Fi, as you guys may have already seen or noticed on your phones, your laptops. Feel free to use it. Select ASGE Guest Network. There's no password. And then just launch your internet browser to accept the terms. Later on today, there'll be a hands-on session where you guys will go to the Bioskills Lab. That one's going on its own. We'll direct you to where to go, but basically half of you guys will come here and get lectures. The other half will go to the Bioskills Lab, and then we'll switch. All right. And we're tracking you if you don't show up to the lectures. If you have questions for those of you in person, you're going to press on the little microphone in front of you. You can press on the push part. Don't push on the green light on the top, okay? So press push. That way we can hear you, as well as the people who are listening from home can hear your questions. If you're virtual, you can ask questions through the Q&A box. Please not ask your questions through the chat. And we will have someone checking the Q&A to ask your questions throughout the course. There's an online evaluation, which we'll get to at the end of the course. That is the end of our slides. Just curious, just to show hands, how many of you guys are second-year fellows? Oh, wow. Okay. Okay. How many are third-year fellows? That's almost 50-50. And how many of you attended a first-year fellows course here at ASGE? Almost everyone. Okay. Any fourth-year fellows? Any first-year fellows who snuck in here? Oh. We have one. Excellent. Good. We like that. That's good. You can come back for two more years. All right. Well, welcome. And we'll get started.
