Many of you may have already watched Prof. Thomas Borody’s nine part video series in which he discusses the role of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) in Crohn’s disease and answers a myriad of questions. The series, which is about 90 minutes, is still relevant today, though some information may be outdated. For those who don’t have the time to watch it in its entirety, we’ve done our best to summarize some of the key points.

Read on to see what the ACDP found.

Dr. Collins, a veterinarian from the University of Wisconsin in Madison, discusses the crossover between human medicine and animal medicine. He makes a compelling argument that the MAP bacteria cross from cattle to humans and should be recognized as a zoonotic infection.
