Byers Endowed Professorship in Esophageal Research

Est. 2010

The Byers Endowed Professorship in Esophageal Research was established by Brook and Shawn Byers in January 2010 to enhance the University of Washington’s ability to recruit and retain distinguished faculty in translational research — research that speeds the application of medical discoveries into therapies that help patients — related to esophageal disorders. The fund is being used to further the work of the Department of Surgery’s Center for Esophageal and Gastric Surgery.
