Let’s Go To Paris!

The 18th International Celiac Disease Symposium will be meeting in Paris in September.  And we’re going to be there.  And invite you to join us.

It’s your chance to hear about all the latest in Celiac Disease from an international pantheon of experts.

We had great fun and adventure in Prague at ICDS 2015.  After the meeting we sailed the Danube on a river cruise.

We’re in the preliminary stages of planning travel after the Paris meeting.  Perhaps a Seine river cruise?

Now’s the time to let us know if you have an interest in going to the meeting or traveling to France with us.  We look forward to your helping us organize the globe-trotting.
