Inside the OmiCrohn Study

Documentary: Epigenetics and the future of IBD care

This video offers an introduction to the OMICROHN Study, developed within the Horizon Europe project METHYLOMIC, in which IFCCA is a participating member. With contributions from Prof. Jack Satsangi, Dr Alexandra Noble, Prof. Geert D’Haens, and patient representative Marieke Oosting, the video explores how epigenetics and DNA methylation could support a more personalised and forward-looking approach to inflammatory bowel disease care.

Podcast METHYLOMIC Matters - EFCCA and OmiCrohn

In this episode, EFCCA Innovation and Patient Engagement Coordinator Roberto Saldaña and EFCCA CEO Luisa Avedano share their views on the OmiCrohn clinical trial and reflect on the potential impact it may have on the lives of people living with Crohn’s disease.

Podcast METHYLOMIC Matters - Omicrohn's Rapid Assay Development

 

Methylomic Matters is a podcastseries by the METHYLOMIC project: a program committed to bringing personalised treatment-selection in Crohn’s disease and other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases to clinical practice. In this podcastseries our host Dr. Vincent Joustra discusses several topics on DNA-methylation, machine based learning and how to bring these techniques to clinical practice.

In the fourth episode of METHYLOMIC matters our attention centers on a crucial element of METHYLOMIC: the development of an easy-to-use diagnostic test intended for clinical validation, with the ultimate aim of global adoption in medical centers. With Dr. Peter Henneman and Dr. Jules Petit we discuss the importance of a rapid assay and compare its pros and cons opposed to the current EPIC array methodology. All this and more in the fourth episode of METHYLOMIC matters!

Podcast METHYLOMIC Matters - Machine Learning Magic Behind the Treatment Response

 

Methylomic Matters is a podcastseries by the METHYLOMIC project: a program committed to bringing personalised treatment-selection in Crohn’s disease and other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases to clinical practice. In this podcastseries our host Dr. Vincent Joustra discusses several topics on DNA-methylation, machine based learning and how to bring these techniques to clinical practice.

In the third episode of METHYLOMIC matters we delve into the intricate machine learning methodology behind the successful prediction models developed by HORAIZON’s founder and CEO, dr. Evgeni Levin. We explore essential elements of the methodology, comparing linear and non-linear models, emphasizing the significance of multivariate models, and addressing strategies for mitigating overfitting. Furthermore, we delve into the prospective clinical applications of these models and their ultimate integration into clinical practice. All this and more in the third episode of METHYLOMIC matters!
