NACC - Ongoing research

While there's a lull in research results being announced it's an opportune time to point out one of the sources of the research.

The UK's National Association for Colitis and Crohn's Disease (NACC) has been funding research for a number of years, and the targets of their recent research funding are succintly described in plain English on their research pages. In addition there is a comprehensive summary of NACC research since 1984 which is well worth reading.

Other national Crohn's and Colitis associations distribute research funding, but none are as successful as the NACC in communicating the relevant details to the general public.
