New questions for autoimmune gastritis
We are exploring how insights from immune biology could help shape new research directions for autoimmune gastritis, with the ambition of informing approaches to the underlying disease process.

The opportunity
Connect a specific condition with a wider body of knowledge
Progress begins with a question that matters to this condition. Our direction is to examine published autoimmune-gastritis research alongside relevant immune mechanisms studied in other settings, then identify where a focused investigation could be useful.
Our research direction
Choose the next question carefully
A mechanism that matters in one autoimmune condition may have a different role in another. We want to understand which biological similarities are relevant, where the differences matter, and what disease-specific evidence would justify taking a proposed direction further.
Transferable knowledge
Review what related immune research can and cannot tell us.
Translational priorities
Identify a focused question, suitable model and informative outcome.
Where we could connect
Bring gastroenterology and immunology into the same conversation
We welcome researchers and development teams with disease expertise, relevant models or experience translating immune mechanisms into interventions. A first discussion can identify the most useful evidence gap and whether a shared research question fits both teams' priorities.

Before we begin
Is this a proposal to repurpose an existing medicine?
Repurposing is one possible research direction to assess. It would require a disease-specific rationale and appropriate evaluation; a medicine's use elsewhere does not establish its suitability here.
How does this relate to current care?
The program concerns future research into the disease process. It is intended to inform research conversations alongside the clinical expertise and care people already rely on.
What evidence would justify moving forward?
A useful starting point would connect a specific mechanism to this condition, identify a relevant way to investigate it and agree what result would change the development decision.
Can patients join a study through this page?
This is a research-collaboration page, not a study-enrolment service. General perspectives are welcome through our contact route; please begin without sending medical records or sensitive personal information.

Could your expertise help shape the next research question?
Bring your objective, the question you want to resolve and a little non-confidential context. We can discuss the fit and a useful next step.
