It was great to interview Prof Alex Ford @alex_ford12399 with @dr_aditi_kumar for the #FGPodcast - any aspiring academic (& in fact established academic) should listen to it - so many lessons and this is just Part 1. Part 2 and 3 will be out soon! @FrontGastro_BMJ @BritSocGastro

Now @LancetGastroHep Appendicectomy showed superior efficacy similar safety over JAKi in UC patients after a biologic failure!

1yr remission 33% vs 12%. Response 73% vs 53%

Joins previous high quality trials w/similar results

Call it appendicectuzumab and lets go

One of the most common questions in any IBD clinic is: What should I eat?

Beatriz Gros, consultant gastroenterologist and researcher, shares the landmark dietary results from the PREdiCCt study, now published in Gut.

We studied the habitual diets of over 1,000 patients in remission for up to four years to find clear answers. While we found no consistent signals from fiber or ultra-processed foods, we identified a significant association between meat intake and flare risk in ulcerative colitis.

This research provides a much-needed evidence base to help clinicians and patients make informed choices about diet and long-term disease management.

Watch the video to learn more about how diet influences IBD flare risk.

Grateful to have worked with this amazing team on this project! @ChhibbaTarun @gilkaplan

To curb the rapid rise of IBD, we must understand both risk & protective factors

Our latest research explores key environmental influences to guide prevention strategies

Best summaries of IBD trials here are done by @laura_tee_mdgi

Now, a new milestone 🌟has been reached with "too long didnt read" @TLDR_IBD where IBD papers are explained & analyzed in < 5 min

1st episode EXIT trial from @geteccu 🇪🇸@maria_chs @jp_gisbert et al @Gut_BMJ

This is something l've always hoped for, and there's so much to learn from it!

[Dr Jonny Blackwell @JonnyBlackwell]

Well done @Dr_James_Lee

[Dr Jonny Blackwell @JonnyBlackwell]

I’m really excited to join the amazing editorial board of @FrontGastro_BMJ as an Associate Editor for #IBD!

Frontline Gastroenterology is the journal for directly improving patients’ lives now &amp; it’s great to be a part of it!

What a team @PhilSmithIsBack !

[The Francis Crick Institute @TheCrick]

Researchers from the Crick, @SickKidsNews and @JohnsHopkins have discovered a recycling mechanism that’s essential for keeping mitochondria healthy.

It could become a future target to diagnose and treat conditions related to mitochondrial dysfunction.

There's been amazing coverage of our new paper @Nature https://t.co/qkrUksBYVW but I wanted to put together a walk-through (and make this accessible as possible). It's a bit long so get a cup of tea! The full version is open access so pls do have a read if you are interested...
