Major Goals of Training Program
This program provides well-balanced training in adult and pediatric Allergy and Immunology. There are 10 staff in our program who have a range of clinical and scientific interests. We have a busy outpatient practice and ongoing research activities, as well as a busy inpatient Allergy/Immunology consultation service. We foster development of clinical skills that include management of complex cases, and the ability to approach problems from an investigative standpoint. There are opportunities for elective time in Pulmonary, Rheumatology, Infectious Diseases, Dermatology, and other areas if desired. A minimum of 8 months of protected research time is dedicated to completion of research with a mentor in a basic science discipline or full-time program faculty. Successful initiation, completion, and presentation of a research project is expected of all fellows. Our program provides excellent training for individuals who seek academic careers in Allergy/Immunology.

This is a program that features strong and unique clinical and research training. It is a combined program with pediatric and internal medicine tracks to better suit the residency training background of the applicants. Being one of a handful of Allergy/Immunology programs that has an NIH funded training grant, we seek fellows with research experience, strong academic backgrounds, and who desire careers in academic practice and research. To prepare our trainees for an academic career, we provide a very well rounded program. The clinical training includes extensive exposure to immediate hypersensitivity, asthma, food allergy, eczema, eosinophilic disorders, occupational lung disease and primary immunodeficiencies, with electives in pulmonary medicine, otolaryngology, laboratory and transplant immunology and rheumatology. Cross training in pediatric and adult allergy is both inpatient and outpatient and extends over the length of the training. A total of 20 clinical and research faculty conduct innovative basic, translational and clinical research in the areas of: new therapies of asthma and allergic diseases, mechanisms of occupational lung disease, food hypersensitivity, reproductive immunology, eosinophil biology and eosinophilic disorders, genetics of atopy, mucosal immunology, innate immunity, mechanisms of inflammation, mucosal hypersensitivity, and experimental murine models of allergic disease, chemokines and the role of cytokines in regulation of immune responses, molecular biology and transgenic and gene targeting analysis on mice. Separate clinical, basic and translational research tracks are offered including a Molecular Epidemiology Program, which prepared trainees for conducting clinical and translational research.
