From the Experts: All Things Celiac Webinar

I’m Diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Now What?

Tracking Progress and Monitoring the Patient with Celiac Disease

Join us for the second webinar in our Fall 2024 “Ask the Experts” series. Speakers will present on selected topics for 60 minutes, followed by 15 minutes for Q&A.

While the criteria for diagnosing celiac disease are well defined, there is a surprising lack of specific “best practice” guidelines for monitoring patients with established celiac disease. Luca Elli, MD, Chief of the Center for the Prevention and Diagnosis of Celiac Disease, Milan, Italy, and lead author of the recently developed evidence-based monitoring guidelines, and Maureen Leonard, MD, Clinical Director of the Center For Celiac Research and Treatment at MassGeneral Hospital for Children, will outline the current treatment approach for both pediatrics and adults and shed light on what still remains to be understood. Anne R. Lee, EdD, RD, LDN, lead author of a recently published article on nutrition assessment of the patient with celiac disease, will share how to assess and monitor adherence to the gluten-free diet for the best possible health outcome. 

Ciaran Kelly, MD, Medical Director of the Celiac Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, will serve as moderator for the seminar. Chris Rich, executive director of the National Celiac Association, will open and close the webinar. A Q&A session will follow the presentations; please submit general questions below or during the webinar on the Zoom platform.
