The Gastroenterological Society of Taiwan (GEST) was founded officially in Taipei on 15th March, 1970. Over the past 42 years, GEST has grown from a small group of practicing Gastroenterologists to an organization with over 1,600 members. The members are composed of practicing gastroenterologists and hepatologists, and researchers in basic gastroenterology and hepatology.

The mission of GEST is to enhance the quality of patient care, train young fellows, promote research in gastroenterology and hepatology-related fields, and to develop networks through regular convention and education programs. Mentoring, knowledge exchange, and dedication to professional growth are among the core values of GEST and its members.

AIDM aims to promote clinical and scientific research in digestive diseases in Taiwan, and to disseminate this research to the international community of medical and healthcare professionals. The journal accepts reviews, perspectives, original articles, short communications, case reports, images and challenge, and letters to the editor.
