Description
This video honors Dr. Maitreyi Raman, Associate Professor of Medicine at the Foothills Medical Centre in Calgary, Alberta in Canada. She is also the Medical Director of the Southern Alberta Home Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition Program. After completing her nutrition fellowship around 2004, she noticed that there were very few nutrition-focused clinician/scientists within the gastroenterology landscape. She adds that her ability to find a female mentor in this field inspired and influenced her career path. Over the past 10 years, her research focus has shifted from enteral and parenteral nutrition to evaluating and accessing the role of dietary therapies, dietary components, and malnutrition in IBD. She encourages clinician/scientists to integrate nutrition into gastroenterology research reaching beyond enteral and parenteral nutrition to liver disease, IBD and beyond. Dr. Raman advises junior faculty to consider nutrition as a subspecialty, as it is still an under-represented field in gastroenterology with good career opportunity and career advancement.
