SPECIAL THANK YOU TO ALL I3 Participants
We want to thank ALL of the patients in the I3 study, and especially those who volunteered to participate in the stress study.  This important work was published in Cell and uncovered a brain-gut pathway that showed that psychological stress worsens intestinal inflammation and dysmotility in both UC and Crohn's disease.  These findings would not have been possible without patients like you!  Please stay tuned for more updates; thank you again!
