Thanks to the support of Helmsley Charitable Trust, we will be able to identify novel therapeutic targets responsible for the development of fibrosis in Crohn's disease. Looking forward to working together with IBD Leuven and Boeckxstaens Lab on this exciting project nieuws.kuleuven.be/en/content/202…
