Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Foundation
Who we are
We foster research, education and training in gastroenterology and hepatology.
Ownership of the Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology (JGH) is the dual responsibility of the publisher Wiley and the JGH Foundation which makes it different in this respect from national and specialty peer journals.
