Inflammatory bowel disease: neither virus nor cancer, why does it develop?

"Series of dissemination talks In search of health"

Inflammatory bowel disease affects more and more people and damages our intestine due to causes that are still poorly understood. However, we know that our immune system plays an important role. We will talk about the role that the immune response plays in these diseases compared to other better known diseases, such as cancer or infections.

By Azucena Salas, leader of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease group (IDIBAPS, CIBER_EHD) and associate professor at the UB.

Talk in Catalan. Free entrance. Limited capacity, with prior reservation.
