Description
A Gluten Free Podcast
Episode 46
On today’s episode, I chat with Claire Baker, Senior Director of Communications at Beyond Celiac. Claire shares her personal journey with coeliac disease and discusses the incredible work Beyond Celiac is doing to drive scientific research, advocate for better awareness, and ultimately work toward a treatment—and eventual cure—for coeliac disease by 2030.
We’ll explore how Beyond Celiac partners with researchers and clinicians, what’s happening in the world of clinical trials, and what a treatment or cure could actually look like for those living with this lifelong autoimmune condition. We’ll also talk about gluten free labelling laws in the U.S. and how Claire’s diagnosis shifted her career focus to coeliac advocacy.

- Claire’s personal coeliac diagnosis story
- Gluten free labelling laws in the United States
