Dear ECCO friends and family,

We hope that you’ve been enjoying the glorious weather and catching up with your families and loved ones as we try to make up for some lost time. We are delighted to welcome new members to the ECCO family and would like to utilise the interview space to get to know them better. This interview is an exciting speed-date with Professor Amy Lightner, who has been a long-standing friend of ECCO and has recently joined the S-ECCO committee. Prof Lightner is a professor of colorectal surgery, inflammation and immunity and the director of the centre of regenerative medicine and surgery. She’s based at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. We hope you enjoy getting to know her through this interview. 

Best Wishes,

Nuha Yassin
