 Welcome to the University of Michigan (U-M) Crohn's & Colitis Program Web site specifically targeted towards patients with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, which are also known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). We hope this site will give you a better understanding of these two chronic illnesses and provide information that will help you adjust to living with IBD. This site also contains new research opportunities and information focusing on students at the college level. The site will also provide an opportunity to communicate with others.
