Help research
You do not need to join a trial to help. Below are the programmes we found in Germany and how to reach them. You contact them yourself: Frontlight does not collect or pass on your details.
Give blood or tissue for researchResearchers use stored samples to find what causes Crohn's disease.
Share your health dataA registry collects health data, without your name, so research teams can study many people at once.
Take part as a healthy volunteerStudies need people without Crohn's disease to compare with. Family and friends can help.
