We’re grateful to the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation for helping raise awareness about BOOM-IBD2, our new clinical trial studying neuromodulation for people living with ulcerative colitis.

The objective of the BOOM-IBD2 clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of an investigational nerve stimulation (neuromodulation) device for ulcerative colitis (UC). This treatment involves implanting a small electronic device that delivers mild electrical pulses to a nerve near the tailbone....

Do your IBD symptoms disrupt your daily life? Boomerang Medical is evaluating the effectiveness of investigational sacral neuromodulation for the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). See if you qualify: https://bit.ly/3XGIXXz

For those with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), stress isn’t just a mental challenge — it can trigger or worsen flare-ups, making an already difficult condition harder to manage. Managing stress is essential for improving quality of life. Whether through mindfulness, exercise, therapy, or simply taking time to relax, stress management plays a crucial role in IBD care.

Let's use today, National Stress Awareness Day, to raise awareness and encourage more conversations about the impacts of stress on health. Taking care of mental health is just as important as taking care of our physical well-being.

If you are a patient with IBD and want to learn about stress management techniques, we recommend visiting the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation for information and resources.👇

We recently reconnected with former Lefteroff Intern Cameron Binney, who interned with us in 2022. Congratulations to Cameron who has since graduated from Auburn University with degrees in Business Analytics and Finance! He is now a financial analyst at Georgia-Pacific in their consumer products division.

During his time with Boomerang Medical and Fogarty Innovation, Cameron worked on multiple projects including an in-depth competitive landscape analysis and pivotal trial endpoint analysis with fellow intern AJ. Together, they researched pivotal trials, documenting various endpoints and mapping out a trial plan.

Cameron shared, “Everyone from the team was very welcoming and willing to answer any questions I might have had. I really enjoyed the internship experience and learned a great deal about the innovative medtech space.”

TeamBoom is thrilled to hear about your accomplishments since your internship, Cameron! We know you will continue to achieve great things.

A round of applause for AJ Sheinberg, Boomerang Medical’s former Lefteroff Intern! AJ graduated from the University of Michigan last year with a degree in Biology and a minor in Sociology of Health and Medicine. He has since moved to New York City and is now working at The Dedham Group, a boutique healthcare consulting firm specializing in market access for oncology brands.

TeamBoom witnessed AJ’s commitment and passion for medical innovation up close. He co-led a literature review to help establish endpoints for an early feasibility study, performed a competitive landscape analysis, and developed a clinical enrollment strategy, among other impactful projects.

Even though we collaborated back in 2022, the work you did continues to resonate today, AJ. We’re thrilled to see all that you have accomplished since your time with Boomerang Medical and Fogarty Innovation!

19 years ago, the Illinois legislature enacted the Restroom Access Act, or Ally’s Law, to assist individuals with specific medical conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This crucial law ensures that people with these conditions can access employee-only restrooms in locations like restaurants, department stores, and other public places when public restrooms are unavailable.

Since then, around 20 states have adopted similar measures, underscoring a growing commitment to accessibility and dignity for all individuals.
