We are delighted to present to you the EFCCA PROJECTS DIGEST. This newsletter will include information regarding the 5 Horizon Europe projects, 2 Horizon 2020 projects, and other projects that EFCCA is presently engaged in. The PROJECTS DIGEST will be published every 2-3 months, and we trust it will serve as a valuable resource for delving deeper into our ongoing research initiatives.
We take great pleasure in informing you that EFCCA is one of the 12 partners coming from 9 countries of the consortium for the miGut-Health Project, which has been selected for European funding under the Horizon 2020 framework. This project will strive to empower people living with IBD by creating state-of-the-art strategies for early disease prediction, prevention, and health monitoring. This will be achieved through data-driven approaches, personalised preventive interventions (such as nutritional changes), and innovative eHealth solutions.
We are happy to share with you a video made on the occasion of the Digestive Health Roundtable 2023, which took place on 15 October in Copenhagen (during the UEG Week).
The colloquium, featuring leading experts in digestive health along with dedicated patient advocates, saw the participation of our chairman, Salvo Leone.
Last days to participate in our survey People with IBD aged 60 and over!!
Our survey is about to come to an end. On 30 November, we will be closing the survey which aims to better understand the challenges faced by people with IBD in this age group as well as how it impacts on their quality of life.

We share with you a useful leaflet created and translated to English by Colitis - Crohn Foreningen Denmark, our member in Denmark.
The brochure provides valuable insights into the most common intestinal diseases and offers guidance on what to avoid saying to someone with bowel problems.

An international patient survey examined the impact of Crohn’s perianal fistula on patients' quality of life. Patients with both Crohn’s disease and perianal fistulae reported significantly greater negative effects on overall quality of life, well-being, relationships, social life, and work life compared to those with only Crohn’s disease. The study highlights the need for targeted therapeutic strategies to address these burdens.
