A team of medical and engineering researchers worked together to create a functioning model of intestinal cells to answer a crucial question about celiac disease, creating the potential to develop a treatment or cure.
Mark Crowther, Sharon Kaasalainen, Greg Steinberg and Elena Verdu are joining as fellows.
For the one per cent of people around the world with celiac disease, avoiding gluten is the only way to help ease its various symptoms, which includes things like abdominal pain, headache, fatigue and constipation.
