Aims to answer the IBD patient’s key question, “what should I eat,” based on the patient’s personal response to different foods, so that diets can be tailored to the individual clinical, biological and lifestyle characteristics of the patient. 

P​​​​​​proposals should focus on one or both of the following approaches:

  • Patient-based prospective studies to identify signatures and/or mechanisms of response to food in IBD patients and their correlation with disease outcomes
  • Preclinical model-based studies to identify signatures and/or mechanisms of response to food and their correlation to IBD pathophysiological readouts

Funding: 
1) Individual Agreement - $320,000 per year for 3 years
2) Collaboration Agreement - $160,000 for year 1 (pilot). $900,000 per year an additional 3 years.
