IBD Journal

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases® is the first journal dedicated exclusively to IBD. It covers topics of interest to the professional clinician or researcher in this burgeoning field. Each monthly issue features original, peer-reviewed articles in clinical and basic science areas, as well as invited in-depth reviews of key treatment issues and groundbreaking research. Coverage includes articles highlighting the unique and important issues in pediatric IBD, as well as articles pertaining to adult patients. Also included are critical examinations of the design and results of recent clinical trials; elucidative discussions of controversial diagnostic and management issues and techniques; and summaries of significant articles from around the world with relevant commentary by experts in the field.

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases® is a benefit of Professional Membership in CCFA (at some membership levels). The cost of a Professional Membership is less than a stand-alone subscription to the journal.

The journal is also accessible online to subscribers.

ATTENTION CCFA MEMBERS: Access to IBD on Wiley InterScience (www.ibdjournal.com) requires an easy registration process. If you did not receive instructions with your first 2007 issues of IBD, or require assistance, please contact Lucy Woo, Membership Coordinator, lwoo@wiley.com
