Many of you know I love timelines & I have been updating the one on IBD trials/studies for some time🧵
The landscape is changing fast & there isnt enough space here to share all the content

What does a mask do? Blocks respiratory droplets coming from your mouth and throat.
Two simple demos:
First, I sneezed, sang, talked & coughed toward an agar culture plate with or without a mask. Bacteria colonies show where droplets landed. A mask blocks virtually all of them.

Our brand new paper on the #CDTREAT diet and #Crohns disease. Hopefully lots to think about in here. Can we devise a diet to treat Crohn's disease? Maybe! gastrojournal.org/article/S0…

"If an experienced clinician with a PhD is unable to adequately
find objects in their own stool, it seems clear that we should not be expecting parents to do so.
The authors feel that
national guidance could include this advice"
