Nice overview of IBD, CD, and UC from Duke Research

Came across this nice 50 min overview video from Duke (my alma mater) covering different types of manifestations and management recommendations for inflammatory bowel disease, including both Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. Highlights of note:
  • minute 36:00 - The speaker comments on clinical protocol for inducing remission right around minute 36. Gives you an idea of what your doctor is basing their recommendations on.
  • minute 39:30 - Non-Anti-TNF agents that are under clinical trial and study for treatment of IBD. Everything from helminthic therapy to stem cell treatment.
