As a small charity, every penny raised makes a huge difference. If you're getting together with friends this All Hallows' Eve, there's still time to raise a few bob and spread awareness about this rare disease. Here are a few simple & spooky ideas! 🎃 ➡️ buff.ly/3NECBTa

The recent publications on the safety of patients with IBD in drug trials are much welcome, great work from colleagues across the IBD world 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇫🇷 We are hugely indebted to patients participating in trials, yet they are exposed to excess harms by placebo treatments & prolonged steroid exposure. We MUST insist on better trial design!

Exciting news! Thanks to The Helmsley Charitable Trust’s funding, IBUS is partnering with Motilent to launch a revolutionary eLearning platform for bowel ultrasound education. Check this link for all the details: ibus-group.org/news/ibus-moti… #IBUS #BowelUltrasound #eLearning

📢In 1999, a review of colonoscopy practice in the UK found that ‘training in colonoscopy is often inadequate and improved practice should result from better training’. See how JAG rose to that challenge: thejag.org.uk/our-history #JAG30 #JAGFlashback
