Advancing treatment in inflammatory bowel disease

Our research program is focused on the clinical manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, and investigating how these manifestations evolve over time and are associated with disease outcomes and response to therapy. We also have an active clinical trials program for the evaluation of new therapies for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and are interested in clinical trial design and methodology.
