Goal #1: Advance clinical and translational science

A diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease, or "IBD," can upend a person's life. IBD—an umbrella term covering a range of gastrointestinal diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease—can manifest as a variety of symptoms, including stomach pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and fatigue. Every version of IBD is chronic, and people often receive a diagnosis in childhood or young adulthood, meaning many will have to manage the disease for most of their life.&nbsp;Luckily, there's been plenty of research into therapies to help patients manage IBD and reduce the inflammation that causes symptoms. But there's one group of patients who have been left out of much of this research on new therapies: children.&nbsp;Many of the treatments now approved for adults haven't been formally approved for use in children, and there's little data on how, or how well, these medications might work for treating pediatric IBD. Without this information, many patients may not be getting the optimal treatment, potentially increasing their risk of long-term complications…&nbsp;Read the full article <a href="https://tracs.unc.edu/index.php/news-articles/2303-community-feedback-plotting-the-future-of-pediatric-ibd-research" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.

Goal #7:  Training and career support programs for translational scientists

Date: Tuesday, March 18, 2025Time: 12:00 - 1:00 p.m., ETLocation: Zoom&nbsp;Presenters:&nbsp;<a href="https://research.columbia.edu/directory/naomi-schrag" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Naomi Schrag, J.D.</a>, Vice President for Research Compliance, Training and Policy, Columbia University in the City of New York&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://research.columbia.edu/directory/roger-lefort" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Roger Lefort, Ph.D.</a>, Assistant Director for Research Compliance, Training and Policy, Columbia University in the City of New York&nbsp;&nbsp;Abstract: Research and Data Integrity Program (<a href="https://research.columbia.edu/ReaDI-Program" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ReaDI</a>) at the Columbia University in the City of New York is designed to enhance data management and research integrity, by providing resources, outreach and consultation to Columbia University&nbsp;researchers. In this talk, we will cover ReaDI activities and resources, the revamped ReaDI website, our new training on proper handling of digital scientific images, the recently developed template for the Lab Data Management Plan in the DMPTool, and our upcoming&nbsp;<a href="https://research.columbia.edu/pcri" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">symposium</a>&nbsp;on promoting credibility, reproducibility and integrity in research.&nbsp;Reproducibility Rounds, produced in collaboration with representatives from multiple CTSA hubs, is a new monthly webinar, designed to foster an exchange of experiences and ideas between institutions, researchers and other stakeholders about how to improve biomedical research rigor and reproducibility. Rounds will be interactive. Future sessions and archived rounds can be found on the Stanford Program on Research Rigor &amp; Reproducibility website.
