Columbia University Celiac Disease Symposium

Celiac Disease: Now and the Future is an international symposium hosted by the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University.  This is a  scientific program designed for those interested in the development of non-dietary therapies for celiac disease including physicians, scientists, industry (pharmaceutical, diagnostic, biotechnology and food & agriculture) and investor/venture capitalists.

Celiac disease is very common, affecting about 1% of the population.  Current therapy is dietary; however, there is increasing interest in non-dietary alternatives.  This conference presents a unique opportunity to bring together those interested in the development of non-dietary therapies for celiac disease.

All food served will be gluten-free.
