Anita Afzali MD, MPH, MHCM, FACG, AGAF @ibd-afzali.bsky.social · 25/11/2025IBD community lost a giant & I lost a colleague, mentor, & friend. Dr Brian Feagan’s impact was one of the most significant contributors to IBD science & will shape the field for generations. I learned from him about conducting rigorous clinical trials I’ll miss him🙏🏼 May his memory be a blessing💜 030
