The Jill Roberts Institute for Inflammatory Bowel Disease conducts basic research to better understand the root causes of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. The institute then works with the Jill Roberts Center to translate bench-side discoveries into meaningful therapies for patients. Institute scientists conduct specialized research on how gut microbes contribute to inflammation and how genetic factors and immune system dysfunction impact individual patients’ disease progression. Institute investigators also collaborate with clinicians and surgeons to offer IBD patients access to a robust clinical trials program.
