Featuring: Emma Levine, MD, University of Chicago Medicine
The GI Research Foundation was able to produce this podcast with a sponsorship from Metro Infusion Center.
In this episode, Dr. Levine, a current fellow with The University of Chicago Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition Fellowship training program, shares her 2025 GI Research Foundation Young Investigator Awards study on the reciprocal relationship between sleep and inflammation in IBD. We talk about why poor sleep is so common in people with IBD and how it can worsen disease activity—even when symptoms seem under control. Dr. Levine explains how her team is using metabolomics to uncover biomarkers that link sleep and inflammation, and why mindfulness-based approaches like yoga nidra and gut-directed hypnotherapy could be game-changers. It’s a fascinating look at how improving sleep might become a safe, non-drug strategy to help manage IBD.
