Crohns & Colitis Foundation - Pinellas Support Group

Crohns & Colitis Foundation - Pinellas Support Group A patient-to-patient support group for adults with Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis (IBD). It was founded in 1967 by Irwin M. Janowitz, M.D.

The Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America is a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization dedicated to finding the cure for Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis. and Suzanne Rosenthal, William D. and Shelby Modell, and Henry D. More than 50 years ago, the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation created the field of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis research. Today, the Foundation funds cutting-edge

studies at major medical institutions, nurtures investigators at the early stages of their careers, and finances underdeveloped areas of research. Educational workshops and symposia, together with our scientific journal, "Inflammatory Bowel Diseases," enable medical professionals to keep pace with this rapidly growing field. No wonder the National Institutes of Health has commended the Foundation for "uniting the research community and strengthening IBD research."
