The Tampere Celiac Disease Symposium 2025, themed “Personalizing Patient Care and Research,” will take place September 10–12 at Tampere University’s Kauppi campus in Finland. The Celiac Disease Foundation is proud to sponsor this important international meeting to ensure that the patient voice remains central to global research, education, and care strategies for celiac disease.

Our sponsorship directly supports efforts to develop treatments, standards, and care models that reflect the real-world experiences and needs of patients. Our Principal Science & Innovation Advisor and ISSCD President, Dr. Robert Anderson, will deliver the keynote address on the opening day, with CEO Marilyn Geller serving as the Patient Advocate for the Gluten Safety Standards Committee, underscoring our commitment to aligning scientific innovation with patient priorities.

For researchers and clinicians, the Symposium offers a unique opportunity to:

  • Connect with leading experts in celiac disease from around the world
  • Present and learn about the latest findings in diagnostics, gluten safety thresholds, and disease management
  • Collaborate on international efforts to personalize treatment and improve patient outcomes
  • Contribute to shaping the future of celiac disease care through multidisciplinary dialogue

For patients, our involvement ensures your voice is heard at the highest levels of scientific and medical discussion. The outcomes of this event, whether new diagnostic tools, more effective treatments, or clearer food safety regulations, translate into tangible improvements in how celiac disease is managed and understood globally.

Held in partnership with the biennial International Celiac Disease Symposium (ICDS), this gathering is a cornerstone of the global celiac disease scientific calendar. It represents our shared commitment to patients, families, researchers, and healthcare provider to push the boundaries of science and improve lives.

We invite clinicians, scientists, and healthcare professionals working in celiac disease to attend.
