Description
At the University of Chicago Medicine Celiac Disease Center, physicians and scientists are leading the way in research, education, and patient care.
As a world-leading celiac disease center, our approach integrates research in chemistry, the microbiome, genomics, and immunology to advance understanding of this complex disease, and ultimately to find a cure.
Donations are applied to...
Your gift will help develop new treatments for children and adults beyond the gluten-free diet, protect children at risk for celiac by uncovering triggers for the disease, improve patients’ well-being by understanding how gluten affects neurological function, and advocate for people with celiac disease through improved labeling and celiac-friendly restaurants.
Why are donations necessary?
This Giving Day you can accelerate the work being done by the brightest minds in science and medicine to improve the lives of those affected by celiac disease through research, advocacy, and care.
“Philanthropic funding is the driver that allows us to explore innovative ideas and opens the pathway for new research directions.”—Bana Jabri, Celiac Disease Center Director of Research
