ACPGBI initiates, supports and collaborates on a number of research and audit projects, including multi-centre trials and observational studies through workstreams within its 'Delphi' research programme based on research priorities selected by our members.
We support funding for research through our research charity, the Bowel Research UK. Our principal audits are the National Bowel Cancer Audit, the Ileal Pouch Registry, the National Anal Cancer Database and the Surgical Workload Outcomes Audit Database (SWORD) for IBD surgery.
Our work is carried out through the Research and Audit Committee, chaired by Jim Tiernan.
