Welcome to S4 episode 16! As we head towards the end of 2025, we wanted to cover IBD breakthroughs, treatment developments and other stories that were in the news. We felt these stories were important to share because a lot of times there are click bait stories out there that can be misleading. But most of all we think it is important to share the hope, support, and direction research is heading! We included links for further reading. We are family friendly and want our audience to be involved! Listen together, separately, but ultimately we hope we bring some attention to some well deserved topics on chronic illness.
