WE HELD AN AMAZING FOOD ALLERGY TEACHING DAY PROGRAM! For over a decade , we have welcomed allergists, pediatricians, nurses, allergy trainees, and other health care providers who come from near and far to attend our annual teaching day.

More information covering our recent study about treating children with "high threshold" peanut allergy, highlighting one of the families involved in the study. The allergy community and researchers are grateful for the children and families who heroically participate in these time-consuming studies and are the pioneers who allow for everyone to benefit from new treatments and approaches.

A study in New York City found some kids with peanut allergies may overcome it by eating peanut butter under medical supervision.
