From the Experts: Join Our Virtual Monthly Meeting on "All Things Celiac"

"Dermatology and Celiac Disease: Did Gluten Cause this Rash"

Join the National Celiac Association (NCA) and the Harvard Medical School Celiac Research Program for a discussion on celiac disease and dermatology.

Speakers will present on selected topics for 60 minutes, followed by 15 minutes for Q&A.

A range of dermatological features have been associated with celiac disease and gluten-related disorders, including Dermatitis Herpetiformis, eczema, and psoriasis, to name a few. Attendees will learn about the connection between the largest organ in our body and celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity in pediatrics and adults. "Celiac Disease and Your Skin" will be presented by Channi Silence, MS, a research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital under the mentorship of Shadi Kourosh, MD, MPH, board certified dermatologist and Assistant Professor of Dermatology at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Kourosh will answer the Q & A.
