About the Author
Dr. Pitchumoni ’s publication of over 250 articles in major peer-reviewed journals and more than 100 chapters in the reputable textbooks are in addition to 7 edited books. A long period of six decades in academic medicine, Dr. Pitchumoni considers, is a boon to satisfy his desire to learn and teach. The return is his vast knowledge of internal medicine and gastroenterology.
Dr. Pitchumoni has received various awards and recognitions. The one award that he takes pride in is the recognition by students of Drexel University with the covetable Blockley-Osler award for excellence in teaching clinical medicine at bed side in the tradition of Sir William Osler.

The initialpublications that brought him to the academic forefront were focused on pancreatology; his pioneering work in the field is well quoted in the literature.
However, his passion was to be a general gastroenterologist, he expanded his interests to cover nutrition and geriatrics. The desire to emphasize the older adults ’ unique needs encouraged Dr. Pitchumoni to work closely with Professor Dharmarajan, a longtime professional colleague with a similar background and professional xxviii About the Editors achievements. Both the editors, one with tremendous experience in the science of geriatrics and the other an experienced clinical gastroenterologist, perceived the need for a comprehensive book in geriatric gastroenterology. The success of the first edition of Geriatric Gastroenterology by Springer, which was released in 2012, prompted the authors to expand the book with many more chapters in the second edition. The editors expect the same enthusiastic reception for the second edition.
