  • COG, March 7, 2014
    Volume 31 The Rotary Club of Calgary is an organization of Number 34 professional and community leaders who come together through commitment and March 7, 2014 fellowship to create opportunities and a better future for generations to follow. District No. 5360 Dr. Remo Panaccione – IBD in Alberta Sean Baylis had the pleasure of introducing our speaker: Dr. Remo Panaccione, Team Lead (Treatment and Cure) with the Alberta IBD Consortium, and Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Calgary. Dr. Panaccione has also been recognized by Rotary International as a Paul Harris Fellow. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) refers specifically to either Crohn's disease or to ulcerative colitis. It is different from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), which is a collection of symptoms experienced by many people in industrial societies. Although IBD is on the rise globally, the per capita disease rates are highest in Alberta. Several studies have attempted to determine why this is so, but IBD occurrence patterns, and the root causes of this disease, are still unknown. Genetics may play a role as the IBD disease rates are generally higher where there are populations of Scandinavian descent, but environmental factors are also suspected. Did you know that the Alberta IBD Consortium is ranked among the top five research centres in the world? In just three years the group has tested three new agents that have been approved to treat IBD. The consortium’s goal is to continue to develop therapies that will improve patient quality of life. Dr. Panaccione’s interests lie in conducting clinical trials for new treatments.
