Another passion is generating real world data to guide clinical care. I co-founded a consortium of 11 IBD centers that have agreed to participate in the expanded REBOOT consortium that has grown from the TROPIC consortium studies of TOFA and ustekinumab. The group has received funding from BMS to study ozanimod in UC and from AbbVie to study upadacitinib in UC.
