Good morning. Thank you everyone for coming. As you see, we love standing room only. That's a great thing. My name is Doug Fishman. For those of you that I have not met before, I look forward to spending some time with you this weekend. And my counterpart. Hi, Lisa Cassani. We're really glad you're here. This is a great course. This has now been going on for a few years now. And I think great opportunity. Many of you were here for the Golden Scope. And stick around to watch that tonight. That should be a lot of fun. And a lot of good activities that we have planned. So let's get started with a little introduction. And we'll go from there. So myself and Lisa. We have an amazing faculty. Certainly these are hand-picked for multiple reasons coming to the table with a lot of different skill sets, experiences, and not just in the lectures, but you're going to hear a lot. Please use all the breaks and all the question periods to ask questions of these individuals and to get some really good insight for your career and moving forward. This course could obviously not be done without help from industry, Boston Scientific, Irby, Braintree, Fujifilm, Medtronic, and GI Alliance. You had breakfast with them this morning. Please visit the exhibitors and get input from them. You can learn a lot. You can play with their toys. We really do appreciate their support and both in-kind donations for equipment as well as their presence here and supporting various parts of this course. Please update your ASG profile. You can use the QR code here. It will be posted around and I'm sure Marilyn and others have that information for you. There's free Wi-Fi. Select ASGE Guest Network. No password. Launch your browser. Most of you have been here for the first year falls course, but if you haven't, the Bioskills Lab you access through the bathrooms. You go through the back of the bathrooms into the locker room. There are lockers there. Leave all your stuff and then go through that final door into the Bioskills Lab. That's probably it on there. Lots of questions. We do have virtual participants. There's a way to ask questions that I'll be either I or Doug will be filtering. If you want to ask a question, please remember to turn on your microphone which is this. Instructions. It's really helpful mainly for the virtual participants to hear you. Then there are online evaluations. We really want to hear about what you want for this course and what works and what doesn't work and how we can change it in the future to help as much as possible.
