Through the European Federation of Crohn’s & Ulcerative Colitis Associations (EFCCA),  an umbrella organisation representing 41 national Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis (collectively Inflammatory Bowel Disease or IBD) patient associations, we identified the German Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis Association (DCCV, https://www.dccv.de/die-dccv/), the advocacy organization for more than 400,000 people with chronic inflammatory bowel disease in Germany, as a patients-centred organisation to feature and promote the EUPHORIA clinical study with their cohort.

Contact was established with the DCCV to publicise the EUPHORIA study to the DCCV audience. A feature on the EUPHORIA study was agreed with the DCCV and published on their website, https://www.dccv.de/einzelne-studienaufrufe/euphoria-ultrasound-photoaktustik-mc-052021/
