About the speaker
Prof. Anthony Hobson is an internationally renowned clinical GI scientist. He did his initial training at the University of Manchester, graduating in 1999 with an MPhil in Clinical Physiology and subsequently with a PhD in 2003.
Since then, he has built wide-ranging experience across the NHS and private healthcare sectors, as well as in academia and the pharmaceutical industry, assessing gut function from top to bottom. This spans conditions such as gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), faecal incontinence, and constipation.
Anthony’s industry experience includes designing and implementing clinical trials to test experimental approaches and innovative treatments in conditions such as IBS, an area in which he has a particular interest.
His vision is that the highest-quality gastrointestinal physiology testing should be available to all patients including in partnership with many NHS centres around the UK to provide these important services.
