© 2014 by the AGA Institute 1542-3565/$36.00 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cgh.2013.12.013 Welcome to the first edition of the AGA Board Strategic Update, a bi-monthly column that will be published in both Gastroenterology and Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology. In each column we will ask an AGA member to update you on key strategic initiatives and issues for the AGA. Our goal is to provide you with insights into the reasoning behind AGA’s programs and policies. The AGA Governing Board councillors will oversee the column. This month, Community Private Practice Councillor Lawrence Kim, MD, AGAF, asked AGA President-Elect John I. Allen, MD, AGAF, to address the board’s response to recent attacks on colonoscopy. The board has had a number of spirited conversations about recent media attention and how we can approach the issue in a robust and thoughtful way. We hope you will enjoy John’s column and future columns.
