A consortium of Canadian and American researchers led by Dr. John D. Rioux, PhD, Associate Professor of Medicine at the Montreal Heart Institute and the Université de Montréal, report in the April 15, 2007 online edition of Nature Genetics the results from a search of the entire human genome for genetic risk factors leading to the development of Crohn’s disease.
