Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study seeks to correlate microbiome sequencing data with information provided by patients and their medical records regarding Crohn's disease.

Detailed Description

The goal of this Research Study is to better understand how the genetic information in subject's microbiome correlates to the information provided in surveys and in medical records regarding Crohn's disease.

Crohn's disease

Patients who have been diagnosed with Crohn's disease

Other: No intervention
There is no intervention for this study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Correlation of Microbiome to Crohn's Disease via Relative Abundance Found in Microbiome Sequencing [1 year]

    Relative abundance of bacterial classes within taxonomic phyla and, more broadly, within their domain will be analyzed by sequencing the gut microbiome. These data will then be categorized among specific gastrointestinal disease types.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Validation of Sequencing Methods [1 year]

    To validate the methods used to sequence samples
