Project

The role of lipidomics in early postoperative Crohn’s recurrence.

The general aim of this PhD project is to identify triggers of post-operative recurrence in Crohn’s disease (CD), by focusing both on the external and the luminal side of the intestine. We specifically want to characterize the lipidomic landscape of creeping fat in CD, and if these signatures can predict post-operative recurrence. We further want to define the luminal components contributing to post-operative recurrent CD and link these to the changes in the mesenteric fat.
