Thanks to the commitment of MAP researchers around the world and the generosity of the Human Para community to sponsor MAP research, there are three recent publications of interest.

Dr. Click passed away on December 7, 2023. While we mourn his loss, we also celebrate the monumental contribution he made to advancing MAP science and hope that his tireless work with Dietzia may soon be celebrated by those afflicted by MAP-associated human disease.

HPF is proud to share the latest MAP research showcased by Dr. William Chamberlin at the 2023 UEG conference.

Human Paratuberculosis Foundation is dedicated to providing the latest research and information about the role of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) in chronic immune conditions such as Crohn’s disease, multiple sclerosis, Type 1 diabetes, ulcerative colitis, sarcoidosis, Parkinson’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and more. Our goal is to assist researchers, health care professionals and patients around the world. We are grateful for the support of our community and look forward to taking this journey together. Enjoy the latest edition of our quarterly newsletter!

In Maori the saying ‘Kua hinga te tōtara o Te Waonui a Tāne”  roughly translates to “In the forest of Tāne a great Totara has fallen.” A Totara is a tree which was of great value. The proverb is used when a person of influence and mana passes on. It most certainly applies to Prof. John Hermon-Taylor.
