Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a multifactorial condition. In a small percentage of all patients, the disease can be explained by a monogenic background. NHS genomic testing is available for this group of patients and the aim is for their delineation to provide important insights for patients and their families as well as stimulating research into underlying mechanisms in IBD. Utilising clinical genomics successfully in IBD will help to personalise treatments which require multi-disciplinary care, specialist knowledge and the establishment of novel support networks.

This workshop will discuss how clinical genomics can inform clinical care for individuals with monogenic IBD. It is targeted at paediatric and adult gastroenterologists, trainees, nurse specialists and any other speciality interested in monogenic IBD.
