Bone mineral density and fractures in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease

Susanne Schmidt & Abstract



Biographical Details

S Schmidt graduated with a medical degree from the University of Rostock (Germany) in 1996 and received her pediatric training in Germany, Norway and Sweden. Already during this time she became interested in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease and bone mineral density. After residency, she worked as a pediatric gastroenterologist in the region of Gothenburg (Sweden) and intermittently also at the tertiary centre of pediatric gastroenterology of Sahlgrenska University Hospital. At the Institute of Clinical Science at Sahlgrenska Academy she conducted clinical studies as part of her PhD work, and in 2010 she defended her PhD thesis with the title ‘Bone mineral density in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease’. S moved very recently to New Jersey (USA), but remains involved in an ongoing project in Gothenburg focusing on the development of bone mineral density in patients with inflammatory bowel disease during the transition from adolescence into adulthood.
